It is the concept known as 'insurance as governance'. However, we argue that there are limited possibilities for this role as far as the insurance of pandemics is concerned. The traditional technical tools, such as risk-based pricing, are difficult to apply. In addition, there may, ab initio, be serious problems in insuring pandemics within one of the main conditions of insurability (controlling moral hazard through an effective risk differentiation). One remedy that is traditionally applied, more particularly for natural catastrophes, is mandatory coverage. Furthermore, the capacity problem might potentially be solved through a multilayered approach in which, in addition to insurance and reinsurance, the government could also take up a role as reinsurer of last resort. That would also have the major advantage of stimulating market solution (and potentially providing incentives for the mitigation of damages), which clearly fails in a model where the government simply bails out operators. Finally, one important regulatory intervention is that insurers should be better informed than was apparently the case during the last pandemic about exactly which type of risks are covered and which are not.</p>","PeriodicalId":75009,"journal":{"name":"The Geneva papers on risk and insurance.

Its significant societal impact has prompted the consideration of alternative frameworks like compensation funds to better allocate the risks and impacts of COVID-related injury. Although there has been discussion about the potential of alternative liability structures for vaccine-related injury, there has been less analysis of the right way to compensate other types of injury, such as long-term illness, disability and death, associated with the SARS-CoV-2 virus. In France, a universal compensation fund for COVID-19-related injuries, designed similarly to asbestos-related schemes, was considered by the parliament. With an eye on scientific knowledge of the best practice in the development and operation of compensation frameworks, this paper analyses the design of such funds in Europe as applied to COVID-19 injury and considers the position of compensation funds in relation to tort law, private insurance and social security models.</p>","PeriodicalId":75009,"journal":{"name":"The Geneva papers on risk and insurance.

The central premise of the paper is to highlight the importance of reinsurance in increasing an underwriter's insuring capacity and to illustrate how, with the support of government in the form of a public-private partnership (PPP), 'uninsurable' risks of this type may be made insurable. The authors propose a PPP, 'Pandemic Business Interruption Re', which provides, in their view, a feasible and defensible solution that would confer the benefit of increasing policyholders' faith in the industry's ability to underwrite pandemic-related BI claims and reduce reliance on ex post government aid.</p>","PeriodicalId":75009,"journal":{"name":"The Geneva papers on risk and insurance.

However, property-liability insurers were able to hold their capitalisation levels relatively stable during both recessions, issuing new capital and reducing dividends. We use these two recent recessions to empirically examine the determinants and consequences of capital issuances by property-liability insurance companies. We find that property-liability insurers raise capital to restore depleted levels due to operating losses and to fund business growth, and these determinants do not change during recessions. We further examine whether capitalisation levels constrain insurers' ability to meet demand during recessions and find no evidence this occurs. We rather find that new capital is associated with premium growth in subsequent time periods. There seem to be fewer frictions affecting property-liability insurers to recapitalise and accommodate demand compared to other financial services firms.</p><p><strong>Supplementary information: </strong>The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1057/s41288-022-00283-5.</p>","PeriodicalId":75009,"journal":{"name":"The Geneva papers on risk and insurance.
