Feetham, a lawyer and international insurance practitioner who lectures at Nottingham Trent U., UK, examines the practice of insurance law as an issue of governance, 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, for students studying insurance law. He considers the concept of risk, risk management, and regulation; captives vs. open market insurers and business, market, and regulatory issues; the reasons why insurance companies such as AIG and HIH fail; ownership, management, and financing; the supervision of regulation at national and international levels; the system of governance; and regulatory arbitrage. A chapter on the Own Risk and Solvency Assessment (ORSA) is by Robin Amos, who is associated with a provider of risk and employee consulting, including insurance broking and management services.
