dc.description.abstract (摘要) | This paper aims to simultaneously examine the effect of liquidity on reinsurance use and the reverse causality of reinsurance on liquidity. Using a sample of U.K. general insurers from 1994 to 2011, we find that insurers with higher liquidity tend to purchase more reinsurance, and those with higher reinsurance dependence tend to maintain higher liquidity. Our data indicates that the cash-constraint argument dominates the substitution argument. We further find an inverted U-shaped relation between reinsurance and liquidity. Particular attention should be paid to the less liquid insurers that purchase less reinsurance because they have both less underwriting and liquidity risk management, and thus are exposed to a higher level of insolvency risk. | |
