A Guide to Insurance examines the practice of insurance law as an issue of governance. The author applies a practical approach to insurance regulatory law (both domestic and international) and provides a guide to current trends, markets and policy choices facing governments and regulators. The book covers the way captives as well as open market insurers are regulated, how they operate and what the potential issues are.

This book explains the underlying rationale of the key provisions of the tax schedule, and provides model long-form and short-form warranties and tax indemnities. These are also included on a disk, so that practitioners can download and adapt the model documents for their own transactions.
