The Geneva Papers on Risk and Insurance - Issues and Practice, 2007, vol. 32, issue 1, pages 46-57

Abstract: This paper firstly reviews the recent robust market performance of insurance financings and insurance-linked securities, covering traditional senior and subordinated/hybrid debt, as well as real risk transfer transactions. Secondly, we detail the five main categories of insurance securitizations. They represent the key recent developments of insurance securitization, allowing issuers to use innovative capital markets solutions to achieve strategic and financial objectives through these various forms of securitization. The Geneva Papers (2007) 32, 46–57. doi:10.1057/palgrave.gpp.2510117
