| Abstract: | In this paper, the degree of competition (Lerner index) and the cost efficiency of
the Japanese non-life insurance (JNLI) industry are simultaneously estimated from
the perspective of industrial organization, and the influence on the JNLI industry of
the deregulation following the amendment of the Insurance Business Law (IBL) and
the Japanese Financial Big Bang (JFBB) is evaluated. Under the market structureconduct-
performance (SCP) paradigm, the Herfindahl index suggests that the degree
of competition in the JNLI industry has decreased remarkably since 2001. However,
assumptions about the market performance of the JNLI industry (degree of competition
and cost efficiency) based on the SCP paradigm have incited criticism, as this
model presumes market performance from market structure, and in most cases, direct
estimation of market performance is not performed. Therefore, this paper aims to
directly estimate market performance using the Lerner index and cost efficiency. The
results of the present analysis suggest that the IBL revision and the JFBB stimulated
the first stage of competition in the JNLI industry. 本論文では、産業組織論的観点から損害保険産業の競争度及び費用効率性を推定し、保険業法および金融ビッグバン以降の規制緩和の影響を評価した。ハーフィンダール指数を見ると,市場構造・行動・成果仮説のもとでは、損害保険産業の競争度は2001 年から著しく低下していることが示唆された。しかし、市場構造・行動・成果仮説には、直接的に市場成果を捉えるのではなく、市場構造から間接的に市場成果を捉えているに過ぎないという批判があることから、損害保険産業の市場成果(競争度および費用効率性) を直接的に推定し、保険業法および金融ビッグバン以降の規制緩和の影響を評価しようと試みた。分析の結果、保険業法改正・金融ビッグバンはその後の状態から判断すると初期段階の競争状態を作り出した可能性が高いことが明らかとなった。 |
