RESEARCH SYMPOSIUM ON INSURANCE MARKETS AND REGULATION
Searle Center on Law, Regulation, and Economic Growth
at Northwestern University School of Law
April 14th (9:30 AM) - April 15th (3:00 PM) 2008
The Searle Center on Law, Regulation, and Economic Growth
at Northwestern University School of Law presents a
Research Symposium on Insurance Markets and Regulation
featuring rigorous, high-quality, policy-relevant research
by scholars from Northwestern University and other leading
academic institutions. Panels cover research on Optional
Federal Chartering of Insurance Companies; Competition in
Insurance Markets; Insurance Regulation in Theory and
Practice; Terrorism Insurance; Medical Malpractice; Tort
Reform; and Emerging Public Policy Issues and Research
Topics in Insurance.
The symposium features a Keynote Address by Representative
Melissa Bean (D-Illinois, 8th District) who has been a
major force in the recent bipartisan introduction of the
National Insurance Act of 2007. The Act would create an
optional federal charter (OFC) for life and property/
casualty insurance providers. The OFC is intended to reduce
regulatory obstacles to improving the cost and delivery of
insurance products to American consumers and businesses.
"Regulatory obstacles currently discourage insurance
innovation and nimble product development to capitalize on
emerging growth markets. Eliminating the need to
coordinate with 51 state regulators and accelerating the
time to market potential will foster greater industry
innovation and agility," said Rep. Bean. "It's time to
allow the insurance industry to move into the 21st century
so that consumers can benefit from reduced costs and
innovative products," Bean said. "The National Insurance
Act will promote a more robust and competitive insurance
industry domestically and internationally, . . . consumers
will realize those benefits."
