Insurance in private international law : insurance and reinsurance in private international law, jurisdiction and applicable law

Abstract

This book provides a comprehensive analysis of jurisdiction and law applicable in cross-border insurance matters. The first book to address cross-border insurance cases from the perspective of European Union regulations, international conventions, and national laws applicable to insurance and insurance-related issues, it explores the concept of cross-border insurance issues and specific institutions related to insurance matters. In the process, it covers both classic private international law matters and specific issues, such as autonomous vehicles in cross-border cases, new technologies, and the Insurance Distribution Directive (IDD).

Given its focus, the book offers a valuable asset for academics, judges, legal practitioners and insurance companies, and other institutions frequently dealing with cross-border insurance matters.
