Written in a period where structured projects in finance are having a difficult time, it is worthwhile to return to the cradle of securitisation: insurance. Spread out over three parts (life, non- life, and tax and regulatory issues) the 26 chapters, written mainly by practitioners, give an excellent overview of this challenging field of modern insurance. Methodology and examples nicely go hand in hand. The overall slant being towards actual analyses of concrete products. No doubt this book will become a milestoneWiley finance series.Risk (Insurance)SecuritiesInsurance stocksRisk (Insurance)Securities.332.63/2332.632QQ 640rvkQK 660rvkAlbertini Luca906691Barrieu Pauline906692MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910139502103321The handbook of insurance-linked securities2027841UNINA
