内容説明
Given its economic importance, insurance is a field that has been underserved as an area of academic study. This detailed book provides much needed coverage of insurance law and regulation in its international context.
Produced in association with Lloyd's, it draws on the expertise both of academics and practicing lawyers. Containing 30 comprehensive chapters, it provides in-depth studies on key areas, such as the role of international organizations, the judicial interpretation of insurance contract clauses and transnational regulatory recognition. It also provides thorough introductions to important jurisdictions, including the EU, US and Japan as well as focusing on newly emerging economies such as China and Brazil. Specialist topics covered include regulation by and of Lloyd's, the tort of bad faith in the US, microinsurance and takaful insurance.
This well-documented resource will appeal to academics and students in insurance law and regulation, policy makers and private practice lawyers. The book also aims to stretch the imagination of anyone with an interest in insurance law and regulation, providing detailed analysis and avenues for further investigation.
