| Abstract: | A review of the lack of available or affordable insurance coverage that has led to a growth of self-insurance, with the argument that self-insurance should be recognized as a legitimate expense in financial statements to be consistent with the current treatment of other after-costs, such as pensions, bad debts and warranties. The authors point out that the current insurance crisis was caused by excessive capacity, the legal system, dollar underwriting and greed. |
