再保险业务是在金融服务的边缘发展起来的，在其存在的大部分时间里，在专家群体之外基本上没有引起注意。最近，公众和专业人士对管理风险的敏感性有所提高，再保险公司已成为应对气候变化和自然灾害等全球威胁的权威。这是第一本书提供了一个全面的历史描述这个行业。它追溯了从世纪初到今天再保险的全球发展。因此，它详细描述了风险本身的性质在过去200年中的变化。它强调了与塑造行业相关的所有方面，从风险的发展，风险工程和风险管理，精算学，金融和货币环境，市场条件，政治影响，监管变化的影响，到大风险和自然灾害。编辑的全面介绍突出了从再保险角度管理风险的不同挑战和方法，如数学，金融，法律的和合同的发展，以及所采用的不断变化的商业模式。所有这些都由10位撰稿人进一步详细论述。本书的贡献者-汉斯·布尔曼，瑞士联邦理工学院福雷斯特·卡佩，卡斯商学院，伦敦城市大学杰弗里·克拉克，波茨坦州立大学纽约洛林·达斯顿，普朗克科学史研究所，柏林尼尔斯·维戈·豪特，瑞士再保险公司有限公司杰弗里·琼斯，哈佛商学院劳伦斯·肯尼·亚历山德罗斯-安德烈亚斯·基尔齐斯，雅典大学罗曼·莱希纳，马丁·伦格维勒，巴塞尔大学Robin Pearson、船体大学Tilmann罗德、海德堡马克斯·普朗克国际和平与法治基金会Milos Vec、维也纳大学Welf Werner、不莱梅雅各布大学
The business of reinsurance developed at the fringe of financial services and, for most of its existence, went largely unnoticed outside the expert community. More recently, both public and professional sensitivity towards managing risks has increased and reinsurers have emerged as authorities on global threats such as climate change and natural catastrophes. This is the first book to provide a comprehensive historical description of this industry. It traces the global development of reinsurance from the early 19th century until today. As such it gives a detailed account of how the nature of risk itself changed over the last 200 years. It highlights all aspects relevant in shaping the industry from the development of risk, risk engineering and risk management, actuarial science, the financial and monetary environment, market conditions, impacts of politics, the effects of regulatory changes, to large risks and natural catastrophes. A comprehensive introduction by the editors highlights the different challenges and approaches to managing risk from a reinsurance perspective such as mathematical, financial, legal, and contractual developments, as well as the changing business models adopted. All of these are dealt with in further detail by ten contributing authors.
