     Summary

A guide to Reinsurance Law helps to identify what is fundamental to your understanding of reinsurance and the applicable law. Rather than discuss just the principles of reinsurance, it explains and promotes thought on the key legal principles that lie behind them. The book will take you through the basic purposes of the different types of reinsurance, with the detail built upon and made more apparent as you get to grips with the reinsurance contract. Across ten chapters you will establish and build upon your understanding of reinsurance law. Some of the specific topics covered include. • The intricacies of the legal framework, through contract formation and the duty of utmost good faith to choice of law and jurisdictional issues within and outside the EU and EFTA • Warranties and remedies for breach • The wording and interpretation of reinsurance contracts • Dispute resolution and the advantages and disadvantages of arbitration • All aspects of the duty of good faith • The regime for determining jurisdiction and choice of law.
