Introduction to Insurance Law provides a practical description of insurance regulation in the UK and the EU, detailing the sources of insurance regulation and the issues that can arise in this fast moving and heavily regulated industry.
Insurance is a highly specialised area and understanding insurance requires an insight into the changing regulatory environment as well as an understanding of what the challenges affecting insurance companies are. This book takes the reader through all aspects of the life and non-life insurance industries as well as covering the regulation of business and financial supervision. The author makes no assumptions about the reader's knowledge of the insurance market, offering a concise and practical guide to insurance from the regulatory perspective, covering all recent updates including the abolition of the FSA and its replacement wth the FCA and the PRA in 2013.
This book is essential reading for early career solicitors and students looking to break into this competitive market, as well as compliance officers and professional advisors looking to ensure their companies comply with current regulation.
