Corporate scandals at the beginning of the 2000s and the recent
global financial crisis have renewed the attention of academics,
regulators and practitioners to agency problems and possible
solutions in the financial sector. Since that time, much thought
has been given to new regulations and international corporate
governance standards, in an attempt to guarantee prudent and sound
financial management. While much of this thought has been focussed
on the banking sector, Corporate Governance in the European
Insurance Industry provides a unique perspective on the subject,
focusing on the insurance industry and asking some important
theoretical and practical questions. Are insurance companies
systemically relevant, and does the existing regulation provide
adequate protection for customers and guarantee financial
stability? Is regulatory intervention consistent with economic and
financial theories? And crucially, is this intervention consistent
with empirical evidence of the behaviour and performance of
insurance companies? The first part of this book provides the
reader with a comprehensive review of current academic studies on
the topic; the second part moves on to examine the regulation of
corporate governance and its recent evolution after the global
financial crisis. Within a context of vivid debate in the financial
services industry, the issues explored in this book will be of
value to anyone with an interest in insurance corporate governance
and regulation. It is also a key source of research for academics
in insurance and finance, as well as PhD students and post-graduate
students in relevant subjects.
