Abstract
The relationship between insurer and insured frequently bears the issue of opposing incentives concerning preventive efforts once the mitigation of risk has taken place; this topic is commonly known as moral hazard. One solution to this dilemma is observation. This chapter is dedicated to exploring the potential of aggregating two insured individuals into an interdependent group for the purpose of reducing observation costs.
