Abstract: The article uses some results obtained in a preceding study regarding the estimation of the life insurance demand for a Romanian company. By employing a novel device - the ROC curve for Discrete Choice Models - we compare three models from a predictive power point of view: the Multinomial Logit, the Conditional Logit and the General Multinomial Logit.
