The paper explores Pareto optimality in decentralized peer-to-peer risk-sharing markets using robust distortion risk measures. It characterizes optimal risk allocations, influenced by agents' tail risk assessments. Using flood risk insurance as an example, the study compares decentralized and centralized market structures, highlighting benefits and drawbacks of decentralized insurance.
“We determined that vulnerable residents who are at high risk for flood hazards with low financial resiliency most need flood insurance but are least likely to own it. In addition, residents who voluntarily own flood insurance are most influenced by the cost of coverage and do not generally apply perceptions of coastal hazard risk when making decisions to purchase flood insurance.”
