Kerrie Glynn, Of Counsel in our Financial Regulation Group, together with Sarah Thompson, Partner in our Financial Regulation Group, have authored the Ireland chapter of Practical Law: Insurance and Reinsurance, published by Thomson Reuters. The chapter provides a high-level overview of the legal and regulatory framework governing insurance and reinsurance activities in Ireland.

The guide examines key aspects of the Irish insurance market, including the regulatory framework, authorisation requirements for insurers, reinsurers and insurance intermediaries, ownership restrictions, ongoing compliance obligations, and penalties for non-compliance. It also covers the sale and marketing of insurance products, transfers of insurance business, reinsurance arrangements, policy terms, claims, dispute resolution, insolvency, and taxation.

The full chapter is available on the Practical Law website.
