Today the insurance industry is global in nature and (re)insurers are critically important to the global economy, assuming and transferring risk across each continent, both to traditional and new market entrants. It follows that risk generated in one part of the world is distributed and shared immediately across multiple markets, including to players such as other insurers, reinsurers, private equity sponsors or capital market investors. We realized the need for a single publication that could provide adequate coverage to recent global developments. Our ‘Global Insurance Alert’ seeks to summarise market developments in the global insurance industry, looking at all five continents, in a tightly edited and fully indexed monthly format.
To understand the sophisticated insurance industry, one must have a solid understanding of global developments and our ‘Global Insurance Alert’ is prepared as a tool to assist readers in obtaining such understanding.
