Summary |
This book is concerned with modern reinsurance claims management within the global reinsurance industry.
This book concentrates principally upon:
The English, Continental European and US experience in general as opposed to other reinsurance markets. However, the fundamentals of good claims management can be applied in any country since it is the attitude and organization more than the jurisdiction-specific issues which determine sound practice.
General reinsurance business rather than life reinsurance;
English and US law; and
English, Continental European and US market practice.
This book is therefore targeted mainly at executives in
Insurance and reinsurance companies;
Lawyers specializing in insurance and reinsurance;
Accountants specializing in insurance and reinsurance;
Brokers; and
Reinsurance consultants.
As such, it must necessarily cover a wide spectrum of knowledge and experience of claims management. For this reason, the aim is to lay down the general principles in a wide number of areas leaving the specifics to be gathered from more specialized texts (if available). The aim is to provide a hands-on approach to a complicated and, at times, technical subject. In short, it is seeking to demystify claims management, enabling the reader to understand current themes and trends.
