The volume explores the industrial organization, regulation, financing, and taxation of this business. The first paper, on external financing and insurance cycles, contains a wealth of information on trends and patterns in the industry's financial structure. The last essay, which compares performance of stock and mutual insurance companies, takes a fresh look at the way a company's organizational structure affects its responses to different economic situations. Two papers focus on rate regulation in the auto insurance industry, and provide broad overviews of the structure and economics of the insurance industry as a whole. Also addressed are the system of regulating insurance companies in the United States, who insures the insurers, and the effects of tax law changes in the 1980's on the prices of insurance policies. 410 0$aNational Bureau of Economic Research project report. 606 $aCasualty insurance$zUnited States 606 $aProperty insurance$zUnited States 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCasualty insurance 615 0$aProperty insurance 676 $a368.1/01/0973 701 $aBradford$b David F.$f1939-2005.$0117962 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910451454003321 996 $aThe economics of property-casualty insurance$92017114 997 $aUNINA
