Denis Dupré and Preston Perluss

Research in International Business and Finance, 2016, vol. 37, issue C, 620-628

Abstract: Drawing on examples from maritime insurance, this article seeks to show that historically rules and regulations have often taken into consideration the performativity of risk insurance so as to limit the range of insured risks and thus avoid the realization of the claims through embezzlement or kindred corruption.
