Book excerpt: Insurance is a sophisticated financial vehicle that can be best understood through the lens of risk management. Experiencing dramatic growth, captive insurance is owned and controlled by its insureds, pooling the risks of its owners. Captive insurance provides businesses with unmatched flexibility regarding coverage, claims, premium, and control, while also offering advantages such as lucrative dividends and innovative financing techniques. This state-of-the-art guide traces the development of small captive insurance and addresses how to set up and properly manage a captive. Modern Captive Insurance: A Legal Guide to Formation, Operation, and Exit Strategies, begins with an overview of what captive insurance is and detail the advantages in setting up a captive for a range of different business situations. Chapters explain how to incorporate and start up a new captive insurance program, including basic terminology and the roles different professionals play in running captive programs. Captive insurance is an intricate yet effective risk management strategy. For guidance in properly establishing a captive, the authors address critical issues evaluated by the IRS, such as risk shifting and distribution, and explore ethical considerations arising out of off-shore captive management, such as how to identify money laundering red flags and how to properly manage the investments of reserves. Modern Captive Insurance takes an in-depth look at the topics and issues that are common in insurance and in businesses, but are often handled differently for captives, such as: Financial statements, investments, and financial ratings Policy drafting and coverage Risk pools and structuring the pooling arrangement to be valid Federal, state and local taxation Tax-exempt organizations Risk retention groups (RRP) Reinsurance, and more Table of Contents Chapter 1: Captive Company Formation Chapter 2: Captives and Capitalists Chapter 3: Risk Pools Chapter 4: Financial Statements, Investments, and Financial Ratings Chapter 5: Policy Drafting and Coverage Chapter 6: Underwriting and Claims Reserving Chapter 7: Federal Income Tax and Captives Chapter 8: State and Local Captive Insurance Issues Chapter 9: Tax-Exempt Organizations and Captive Insurance Chapter 10: Risk Retention Groups and How They Work Chapter 11: Reinsurance Chapter 12: Workers' Compensation and the Grand Bargain Chapter 13: Employee Benefits Conclusion Table of Cases and Index
Download or read book Modern Law of International Trade written by Ajendra Srivastava and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-08-31 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a comprehensive and systematic study of the principal aspects of the modern law of international commercial transactions. Based on diverse sources, including legislative texts, case law, international conventions, and a variety of soft-law instruments, it highlights key topics such as the international sale of goods, international transport, marine insurance, international finance and payments, electronic commerce, international commercial arbitration, standard trade terms, and international harmonization of trade laws. In focusing on the private law aspects of international trade, the book closely analyzes the relevant statutes, case law and the European Union (EU) and international uniform law instruments like the Rome I Regulation, the UN Convention on the Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG), UNCITRAL Model Laws; non-legislative instruments including restatements such as the UNIDROIT Principles on International Commercial Contracts, and rules of business practices codified by the ICC such as the Arbitration Rules, UCP 600 and different versions of the INCOTERMS. The book clearly explains the key concepts and nuances of the subject, offering incisive and vivid analyses of the major issues and developments. It also traces the evolution of the law of international trade and explores the connection between the lex mercatoria and the modern law. Comprehensively examining the issue of international harmonization of trade laws from a variety of perspectives, it provides a detailed account of the work of major players in the field, including UNCITRAL, UNIDROIT, ICC, and the Hague Conference on Private International Law (HCCH). Adopting the comparative law method, this book offers a critical analysis of the laws of two key jurisdictions—India and England—in the context of export trade. In order to stimulate discussion on law reform, it explains the similarities and differences not only between laws of the two countries, but also between the laws of India and England on the one hand, and the uniform law instruments on the other. Given its breadth of coverage, this book is a valuable reference resource not only for students in the fields of law, international trade, and commercial law, but also for researchers, practitioners and policymakers.
