International Insurance Regulation
Euromoney Trading Ltd, July 2004, Pages: 513
Produced in response to increasing regulation, this book is fast becoming the number-one reference volume for the insurance industry. Designed for both the business and legal community, the book comments on market trends and regulations in the EC, US, Bermuda and China. It is written for life and general insurers, reinsurers and underwriting agencies, brokers, rating agencies, advisors and market commentators. International Insurance Regulation explains current and proposed regulation across a range of jurisdictions. The book explores emerging trends and the response of regulators to an increasingly global and consolidated financial services industry. It highlights common principles between jurisdictions as well as differences between them, providing an essential guide for those needing to know how regulation will affect an international business. The book takes account of market developments, including the flood of capital into Bermuda and the increasing use of alternative forms of risk transfer, such as captives and securitisation.
