From the supplier: Regulation, insurance company comfort and market liquidity are issues of concern when insurance companies decide to become involved in basis risk and the risk transfer potential of the index options market of the Chicago Board of Trade. This risk concerns the difference between the insurance industry's loss experience and the specific insurance company's loss experience. Changes in regulations could allow insurance companies to use the options for hedging not speculation.
