Publication: Williamsburg, Virginia : The Omohundro Institute of Early American History and Culture, 2021Physical description: 335 p. ; 24 cmNotes: Sumario: Unassuming but formidable, American maritime insurers used their position at the pinnacle of global trade to shape the new nation. The international information they gathered and the capital they generated enabled them to play central roles in state building and economic development. During the Revolution, they helped the U.S. negotiate foreign loans, sell state debts, and establish a single national bank. Afterward, they increased their influence by lending money to the federal government and to its citizens.Materia / lugar / evento: Seguro marítimo Empresas de seguros Mercado de seguros Historia del seguro Productos de seguros Evolución del seguro Trabajos de investigación Evaluación de riesgos Estados Unidos Other categories: 14Standard numbers: ISBN 978469663630
