Abstract

The aim of this paper is to measure technical and ALLOCATIVE EFFICIENCY as well as PRODUCTIVITY of public and private insurance companies that are active in Iranian insurance industry, using DATA ENVELOPMENT ANALYSIS (DEA). We assess technical and allocative efficiencies and the PRODUCTIVITY of public and private insurance companies from 1384 (2005) to 1387 (2008). Our results show that the average measures of TECHNICAL EFFICIENCY for the Iranian insurance industry in constant returns to scale model, is 0.944, and the corresponding value in variable returns to scale model is 0.972.The results also show that public insurance companies have been operating under decreasing returns to scale and only two private insurance companies, namely Parsian and Mellat have had constant returns to scale in production. In addition, variations in total PRODUCTIVITY, using the Malmquist index, was increasing for Asia, Moallem, Parsian, Razi and Pasargad and decreasing or undetermined for all other insurance companies.
