Reinsurance Working Party

Questionnaires

When the Reinsurance Working Party was established over 10 years ago, one of its goals was to produce a comparative study into worldwide reinsurance law by drawing on the experience and knowledge of the Working Party members. The Working Party decided to circulate questionnaires on key areas of reinsurance law and appoint an editor to draw each questionnaire's responses together to form a Report to be published.  The first reports were commercially published and are now not still available.  Reports in future will be on the AIDA website under the Reinsurance Working Party section and can be accessed for no charge.
