I am a Taiwanese English tutor in Taichung,Taiwan. After watching this video and learning this concept, I suddenly realized why I was sacked by a client 1.5years ago. She was in fear of being ripped off by me due to asymmetric information and moral hazard.

Grate example is current situation of the Corona Virus. Here in the states, most event organizers or employers arent preparing for the outcome of the outbreak. They will let their workers work until they get sick. Also,, their employees cant afford to get sick anyways coz they have bills to pay, cant afford to go to a doctor, and almost all dont have paid sick leave.

There is a nice paper by Benjamin Hale What's so moral about moral hazard? in philosophy. He writes : In this paper, I argue that there is nothing inherently moral about the moral hazard, and in fact, that the so-called moral hazard is better understood as a central and inextricable feature of insurance and public policy more generally

This is not the normal use of the term moral hazard. Moral hazard is lack of incentive to guard against risk. That it not what what is being described here.

I have no idea why he's using this term for that definition. It's just not correct. Surely he knows this.

@A.HF86 23 күн бұрын

To my knowledge, moral hazard is defined as "when one party takes actions that the other party can't observe but which affect both of them." The examples mentioned in this video all align with this definition. It's true that these examples aren't common, though.

moral hazard is the reason that insurance companies like to collect premiums, but not pay claims

Isn't it a moral hazard, only if the mechanic does not fix my car properly though i have paid him for the damage to be fixed? otherwise wouldn't it be an example of adverse selection?

Which of the following is NOT an example of ‘moral hazard’? A. Amy does not always bother to lock her bicycle, knowing that it is well insured. B. Knowing that he has comprehensive life insurance in favour of his family, Bill chooses to ski down the dangerous ‘black’ slopes on holiday instead of the safer ‘green’ ones. C. Caroline takes out life insurance, knowing that her smoking habit has given her terminal lung cancer. D. Having been granted debt forgiveness from the World Bank, the government of a developing country incurs new debt, expecting to be bailed out again if necessary. E. Knowing that his company has limited liability, a manager borrows heavily to pursue maximum growth.

I think the answer is C. She takes insurance after she finds out she has cancer. If she had taken life insurance first and then started smoking & gotten cancer then it'd be considered a moral hazard issue. Am I right?

C right?

@DTSemaphore 3 жыл бұрын
