Abstract

In this paper is realized an theoretical and empirical approach regarding density and penetration on accident & health premiums. The analysis is performed on a sample of 33 countries and a horizon of 5 years (2004, 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008), being tested 2 linear regression models. The results of study confirm a relationship between level of economic development and accident & health insurance activity insurance, but exclude the existence of the relationship between penetration factor and this type of insurance.
