The insurance industry represents a significant portion of the American economy. Premiums paid to insurers each year account for nearly a tenth of the country’s GDP. Given this fact, virtually no one disagrees that insurance should be regulated in a way that aligns with its economic and social importance. There is much less consensus, however, on what those regulations should look like. Modernizing Insurance Regulation is the result of years of investigation and discussion of the insurance sector. This book presents the key arguments in the insurance regulation debate, as expressed by the industry’s most knowledgeable regulators, practitioners, and academics.
In 2009 and 2012, NYU’s Stern School of Business hosted conferences to address the lack of research surrounding insurance regulation. Participants gathered to discuss current and future regulation approaches, advancing the discussion of alternative regulatory designs and leading the way for future discussion. Modernizing Insurance Regulation is the result of those conferences. Key conference participants have contributed their views to this unique collection, providing perspectives on specific legislation and laying out the strengths and weaknesses of existing proposals. Anyone interested in the future of insurance will need to be familiar with these points of view.
One of the most contentious topics in the recent insurance regulation discourse surrounds the issue of systemic risk. In the aftermath of the 2008 events in the banking sector, there is concern that systemic risk has migrated to insurance. If that is the case, the Federal Systemic Oversight Committee (FSOC) is required under the Dodd-Frank Act to take on a regulatory role. But as readers of Modernizing Insurance Regulation will discover, the situation is far from clear-cut. In addition to chapters on systemic risk and insurance regulation, this book contains analysis of crucial topics like insurer safety nets, state regulation, and the role of intermediaries.
Modernizing Insurance Regulation is a just-in-time volume that will help regulators, investors, policy makers, and other interested parties develop a working knowledge of the arguments and research findings that matter. Common progress requires a common starting point, which is why this book is so important for bringing regulation of the insurance sector into the 21st century.
