From the supplier: The Carlson and McAfee model of price dispersion was modified to allow its use for studying screening in the insurance industry. The model predicts that large insurers can screen more effectively compared to small insurers. Large insurers thus have lower loss costs because they insure less high-risk drivers. A regression analysis of the relationship between firm size and lost costs using automobile insurance data in Alberta from 1978 to 1981 supported the model's prediction.
