Abstract: L’article développe l’analyse de la structure optimale des contrats d’assurance, dans le cas des "événements à faible probabilité", c’est-à-dire, lorsqu’il existe une masse de probabilité sur l’événement sans accident. On discute l’optimalité de la clause de franchise à la fois de façon théorique et empirique.
