Households are full participants in economic relations. Their role is determined primarily by the financial potential, using which, households are able to provide consumption and capital accumulation. There are various approaches to the issue of the content of the concept of "financial potential". The issue of increasing the financial potential of households is no less urgent. The foregoing determines the relevance of the stated research. Its results are presented to the readers in this work. The article is devoted to the substantiation of increasing the financial potential of the household through the use of corporate insurance in practice, primarily in terms of voluntary health insurance. The materials of the article can be useful to companies for the development of social policy. Interest should be sparked by the value of corporate insurance, not only for the company and its employees, but for the economy as a whole.

Scandinavian health systems have traditionally been portrayed as relatively similar examples of decentralised, public integrated health systems. However, recent decades have seen significant public policy developments in the region that should lead us to modify our understanding. Several dimensions are important for understanding such developments. First, several of the countries have undergone structural reforms creating larger governance units and strengthening the state level capacity to regulate professionals and steer developments at the regional and municipal levels. Secondly, the three Nordic countries studied experienced an increase in the purchase of voluntary health insurance and the use of private providers. This introduces several issues for the equality of users and the efficiency of the system. This paper will investigate such trends and address the question: Is the Nordic health system model changing, and what are the consequences for trust, professional regulation and the public interest?

The current literature on the politics of social policy has two major shortcomings: health care reforms are undertheoretized and research on Anglophone Africa tends to neglect health reforms. To tackle this, a case study on Kenya presents (failed) re-forms such as universal or categorical free health care or the introduction of health insurance and the expansion of its coverage. The case study clearly shows that there is no single theoretical explanation of social policy reforms or their failure. Rather, there are different combination of factors at work in Kenya.
