Download or read book Information Disclosure written by Julie-Anne Tarr and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2001 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An insurance contract is one of the most significant documents an average consumer signs in the course of his or her adult life. It defines the scope and measure of protection available to the policy holder should the risk eventuate. Insurers similarly view the information supplied during contract negotiations as critical. As it provides a basis for assessing the risk inherent in issuing the policy, failure to disclose information fully and accurately can skew calculation of the risk level inherent in the deal and of the appropriate premium payable. For this reason, insurance contracts have traditionally been treated as a special category of business dealing. Unlike standard contracts based on caveat emptor, – let buyers beware – insurance contracts bind both insurers and consumers to a higher duty of honesty and good faith in their dealings with each other. Failure to fully disclose information that may affect an insurer’s calculation of risk in taking on the contract can potentially, therefore, result in the valid rejection of a policy holder’s claim.Given the potentially devastating consequences claim denial carries for policy holders, this book outlines the current legal regulatory framework governing this area and assesses its capacity to provide a just and efficient set of standards for the exchange of this information in the pre-contracting stage.

Download or read book Risk Management in Outer Space Activities written by Maria A. Pozza and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-02-09 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Risk Management in Outer Space Activities assesses selected risks associated with space activities, from an Australian and New Zealand perspective. The book explores the rise of commercial space activities and considers the development of Australia and New Zealand’s regulatory frameworks, and how they are equipped to address new and emerging risks in the space sector. The book examines the juxtaposition of international space law against the domestic legal regimes of Australia and New Zealand, and how these regulatory frameworks are designed to create governance mechanisms to control space risk. Both national jurisdictions approach space risk from the perspective of liability and international legal obligations, but as a result of their different historical space trajectories, their risk approaches differ. This is illustrated by research that suggests that from an Australian point of view, much of its space industry development has been influenced by Cold War era military and national security concerns. On the other hand, the New Zealand perspective is grounded on the rapid market-led commercial development that is currently underway in the country. The book examines a variety of risks that can and do emerge in the course of undertaking space activities. It does this by presenting a series of space risk case studies. There are chapters devoted to examining commercial space risks, space insurance, the risks posed by space debris, cybersecurity and space assets, light pollution as a risk for astronomy and the risks inherent in landing objects on the Moon. The work contained in this book is intended to provide a clear, practical and informed approach to understanding risk management in outer space activities. It will appeal to policy makers, risk professionals, space lawyers, national space agencies as well as academics, researchers and students

Download or read book Insurance and the Law of Obligations written by Rob Merkin and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2013-08-29 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is widely acknowledged that insurance has a major impact on the operation of tort and contract law regimes in practice, yet there is little sustained analysis of their interaction. The majority of academic private lawyers have little knowledge of insurance law in its own right, and the amount of discussion directed to insurance in private law theory is disproportionately small in relation to its practical importance. Filling this substantial gap in the literature, this book explores the multiple influences of insurance in the law of obligations, and the nature and impact of insurance law as an inherent and significant aspect of private law. It combines conceptual and doctrinal analysis, informing the theoretical discussion of the nature of private law, including the role of judicial and public purpose, and the place of formalism and of contextualism in normative theories of private law. Arguing for the wider recognition of the multiple impacts of insurance, the book claims that recognition of the presence of insurance necessarily marks a departure from the two-party framework sometimes described as definitive of private law. The structured exploration and interpretation of the contemporary role of insurance in the law of obligations, and of its implications, illuminates this under-explored area of private law, and equips the reader for further enquiry and debate.
Download or read book Illegality in Marine Insurance Law written by Feng Wang and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Illegality in Marine Insurance Law is the first book to deal specifically with illegality in the context of marine insurance law. Previously, this issue has only ever been partially covered within analysis and criticism of Section 41 of the Marine Insurance Act 1906 and warranties. However, Dr Wang Feng goes much further than this by considering its impact on the common law relevant to marine insurance in many jurisdictions worldwide. The book addresses whether the existing law represents an accurate codification of the former authorities and whether Section 41 truly reflects existing legal principles. As well as this, the book examines how correctly to approach illegality within the context of marine insurance, considering the fundamental changes to the rule of breach of warranty introduced by the Insurance Act 2015. Of interest to academic researchers and practitioners in common law and civil law jurisdictions, this book provides rigorous analysis of the illegality issue and a conceptual approach for various approaches to reform marine insurance law. It is a unique and comprehensive guide to illegality in marine insurance law.
