When inflation occurs in a country, the value of the currency decreases. That means that the purchasing power consumers have with a fixed amount of money decreases. Wages, especially lower and middle class wages, usually increase at a MUCH slower rate than prices of consumer goods; so consumers are likely to make the same wage, but are not able to buy the same amount of goods and services. Consumers in countries with hyperinflation suffer greatly because of this economic phenomenon.

Accurate forecasting of claim frequency in automobile insurance is essential for insurers to assess risks effectively and establish appropriate pricing policies. Traditional methods typically rely on a Poisson distribution for modeling claim counts; however, this approach can be inadequate due to frequent zero-claim periods, leading to zero inflation in the data. Zero inflation occurs when more zeros are observed than expected under standard Poisson or negative binomial (NB) models. While machine learning (ML) techniques have been explored for predictive analytics in other contexts, their application to zero-inflated insurance data remains limited. This study investigates the utility of ML in improving forecast accuracy under conditions of zero-inflation, a data characteristic common in automobile insurance. The research involved a comparative evaluation of several models, including Poisson, NB, zero-inflated Poisson (ZIP), hurdle Poisson, zero-inflated negative binomial (ZINB), hurdle negative binomial, random forest (RF), support vector machine (SVM), and artificial neural network (ANN) on an insurance dataset. The performance of these models was assessed using mean absolute error. The results reveal that the SVM model outperforms others in predictive accuracy, particularly in handling zero-inflation, followed by the ZIP and ZINB models. In contrast, the traditional Poisson and NB models showed lower predictive capabilities. By addressing the challenge of zero-inflation in automobile claim data, this study offers insights into improving the accuracy of claim frequency predictions. Although this study is based on a single dataset, the findings provide valuable perspectives on enhancing prediction accuracy and improving risk management practices in the insurance industry.

Investigating the credit channel and monetary policy risk channel in Iran’s economy is the aim of this article. According to empirical studies, expansionary monetary policy increases the risk of banks, and on the other hand, the risk of banks affects economic activities and price levels. In order to investigate the mechanism of the credit channel and the risk channel (as a new channel), the effect of monetary policy on real variables and price levels in Iran’s economy, the Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) model has been used by entering the information of the banking system and considering moral hazard and adverse choices. The obtained results show that there is a credit channel and a monetary policy risk channel for Iran’s economy, and the expansionary monetary policy shock causes output, inflation, private sector consumption, investment, net worth in the economy and lending to increase. Also, when a credit shock occurs, with the increase in banks’ lending power, production, private sector consumption, investment, net worth and total lending increase and the inflation level decreases. Also, by applying the risk shock caused by the increase in inflation and the decrease in consumption and investment, the volume of lending increases and the level of production does not change much.
