Application of Game Theory to Some Problems in Automobile Insurance

In this paper we shall study the problem of determining "correct" premium rates for sub-groups of an insurance collective. This problem obviously occurs in all branches of insurance. However, it seems at present to be a really burning issue in automobile insurance. We shall show that the problem can be formulated as a conflict between groups which can gain by co-operating, although their interests are opposed. When formulated in this way, the problem evidently can be analyzed and solved by the help of the "Game Theory" of Von Neumann and Morgenstern.
