Tiivistelmä: | When markets are incomplete, it is almost always possible for the government to use tax and transfer policies to effect a Pareto improvement. Optimal tax interventions are considered when insurance markets are incomplete. By taxing the returns from a risky endeavour and using this revenue to finance a certain expenditure level, the government can simulate the returns from an insurance contract. Policies of this kind are analysed in a model where there is moral hazard, that is, an agent makes a privately observed effort choice which affects the riskiness of outcomes. |
