Highlights on Reinsurance History (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Despite being one of the main pillars of the insurance industry, reinsurance is little known by the general public and is rarely the focus of academic study. In this book, the authors - economic historians and experts in the field from across Europe and Japan - seek to address this by shedding light on one of the most globalized of all economic activities. In a clear and engaging manner, they reveal the history of reinsurance in both national and international contexts, aiming to illuminate this vital, but often overlooked, aspect of insurance.
