Corporate insurance design with multiple risks and moral hazard

  • The paper provides novel insights on the effect of a firm’s risk management objective on the optimal design of risk transfer instruments.

In contrast to the case of risk aversion and moral hazard, the optimal insurance contract involves a joint deductible on aggregate losses in the present setting.
