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. Contributors: A. Abramovsky, S. Bessman, M.E.
