Answer to Question 1

Adverse selection occurs in the insurance market due to asymmetric information. A buyer of car insurance knows about his/her ability to drive a car and hence the likelihood of having an accident, while the insurer does not. A buyer can reduce this information asymmetry by signaling the insurer about his/her abilities as a driver, for example, by passing driving competency tests.

Answer to Question 2

A
