Outsourcing impact.

Invited speakers will present papers to the conference which will provide insights into the legal developments affecting the topics included in the thematic of the call. The goal is to provide information on emerging changes affecting insurance undertakings as emerging from the interplay between corporate law and insurance regulation, and, in doing so, to also provide a forum for debating and developing the law and policy in this legal field.
