Publisher's Synopsis
DictionRe contains English language terms, phrases and acronyms with core reference to the field of Reinsurance. Material for each edition has been extracted from the continuing work of Regulators and Legislators who strive to reach definitions fit for use, as well as Judges and Arbitrators who are left to balance all and bring all to mind - after the event. Yet much more originates from the contributions of market, legal and accounting practitioners who have long enriched the field with their clarity of expression and dogged examination of inconsistent and flawed thinking. From these sources, we have included some important esoteric terms from long-departed markets which may still be of interest to those operating in legacy business acquisition, consolidation and run-off management.
