It avoids defects of traditional agricultural insurance,such as moral hazards,adverse selection,and high management cost. On the basis of studying agricultural product price index insurance of all areas of China,this paper analyzed characteristics of agricultural product price index insurance from object selection,product object,premium design,and policy support,and discussed feasibility of extending agricultural product price index insurance in an all-round way.展开更多

In addition, insurance priceformulas for several general insurance types are also presented. The insurance pricing method thatis given in the paper doesn't depend on mortality ratio and the probability distribution of losses.It is an obvious difference between the insurance pricing method in the paper and the traditionalinsurance pricing methods. Thereby, this paper serves to develop a insurance pricing method, andhas important practical or immediate significance. Finally, the application of the method is given.展开更多

Land scarcity limits China's ability to continue increasing its hog production without feed imports, particularly soybean, and the feed markets are increasingly integrated into the global market. This study performs an analysis of price transmission between the hog price in China and feed prices, specifically domestic maize price and international soybean price, from January 2000 to April 2014. We identified a long-term stable equilibrium relationship between the three markets. However, further analyses show that there is no significant Granger causality between hog and feed market, and the long-run equilibrium partially results from Granger causality between the international soybean market and domestic maize market. This suggests that the domestic hog market has been distorted by different policies. The results also indicate that the efficiency of price transmission is very low and it takes about 11 months to correct one-half of any long-run disequilibrium for the hog market in China. Therefore, to stabilize hog price in China, only market intervention to regulate the maize and soybean markets would be insufficient and comprehensive measures need to be taken into account such as hog production modernization, agricultural insurance, epidemic surveillance etc.展开更多

Therefore, our country has begun to gradually establish our long-term care security system, and the pricing problem of long-term care insurance has gradually attracted the attention of academic circles. The pricing model and nursing demand of long-term care insurance have been repeatedly discussed and studied, and many useful conclusions have been formed. However, in terms of rates, the rates of both commercial long-term care insurance and policy products are on the high side. At present, the price of commercial long-term care insurance is high. Although the price of policy-oriented products is low, the level of protection is also low, which cannot provide sufficient protection. This study explores the introduction of capping line into long-term care insurance to reduce the rate level of long-term care insurance. Using the existing state transition matrix, through empirical research, the pricing of long-term care insurance with capping line is made in order to provide suggestions for the development of long-term care insurance.展开更多
