Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Catastrophe risk financing in the United States and the European Union : a comparative analysis of alternative regulatory approaches

Notes: Sumario: This article examines and compares regulatory and other government policies in the United States and the EU generally and their approaches to the financing of catastrophe risk specifically. It is important to understand the fundamental differences between the two systems to gain insights into their disparate treatment of catastrophe risk financing. Although policies could be improved in both jurisdictions, the authors argue that the much greater reform is needed in the United States relative to the EU regulatory policies that are being developed. They offer recommendations on how U.S. policies could be significantly improved as well as comment on issues facing the EU. They conclude with some observations on the needs for further progress in the U.S. and EU regulatory systemsRelated records: En: The Journal of risk and insurance. - Nueva York : The American Risk and Insurance Association, 1964- = ISSN 0022-4367. - 01/09/2009 Tomo 76 Número 3 - 2009, p. 607-637Materia / lugar / evento: Gerencia de riesgos Seguro de riesgos extraordinarios Financiación de los riesgos Reglamentación Análisis comparativo Supervisión financiera Estados Unidos Unión Europea Otros autores: Wang, Shaun
