摘要
In the mean-variance framework, insurance demand goes down when the expected size of insurable losses decreases or insurance premia increase if the elasticity of risk aversion with respect to expected wealth exceeds -1. In terms of the expected-utility approach, this condition is equivalent to the index of partial relative risk aversion being lower than one. (C) 2014 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
