Over recent years the insurance industry has faced a period of rapid change and consolidation with recent disasters, both natural and manmade highlighting the problems the industry faces. Yet this has also been a time of opportunity, with the rise of securitization, the insurance industry has turned financial necessity into lucrative invention.
An in-depth look at the increasingly significant convergence between the insurance industry and the capital markets.
This important publication, by two premier financial experts, explores the unique convergence of finance and insurance. The book covers the basics of property-casualty insurance, securitizing insurance risks, looks at life insurance in the United States and ALM in insurance. It addresses the questions and concerns of investment banks, brokerage firms and the insurance/reinsurance sector itself, examines ongoing trends and issues, and how current market pressures on insurance companies do not just create challenges but actually point the way to future promising developments.
