摘要

Insurance market is still evolving and an important part of this evolution includes innovation in risk coverage. Such innovation are based on various solutions and a good knowledge of these provides framework for successful implementation of insurance innovation. Lack of such knowledge often results from education gap in insurance-related themes. In this paper we examine whether there is education gap among non-financial companies in Poland. We use respondents’ subjective assessment of their level of knowledge and understanding of selected solutions. We found that there is a visible insurance education gap with regard to more sophisticated solutions and the level of this gap is not associated to company's size.
