Content
In an increasingly demanding regulatory context, this book allows the reader to become familiar with topics such as obtaining a license to carry on an insurance activity, the distribution of insurance products, outsourcing and professional secrecy, the protection of personal data, and the fight against money laundering and terrorist financing.
The authors explain, with reference to a selection of countries - Luxembourg, France, Belgium, Italy, Portugal and the UK – how, from the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, life insurers have created insurance products that meet the evolving needs of policyholders and ensure compatibility and efficiency in light of the technical requirements of each of the jurisdictions where policyholders and their families reside. Luxembourg rules grant policyholders optimal flexibility, certainty and legal security in the field of wealth planning and this has long contributed to the success of Luxembourg insurance in Europe and beyond.
