EP 26: Economics of Insurance Industry (1/2) | Nexus Mutual

The insurance business is one of the oldest in the world. Today,
it's  worth over US$5 trillion. 


Online insurance is only capturing US$31  billion. And in
crypto, it's even smaller. That spells opportunities x1.
   


The insurance industry is so inefficient. That spells
opportunities x2.   


In this video, we dive into the economics of insurance. This
helps us to  better understand Nexus Mutual, when we do a
deep dive in the next  video!   In the economics
of insurance, we cover the Economics of Signalling,
 Economics of Moral Hazards, Principle-Agent Relationship
and Law of  Large Numbers.
