The Federal Government also has been investigating the role of reinsurance in connection with the financial health of insurers.” The panelists' discussion is intended to “help reinsurance actuaries prepare to give testimony and interviews, and to become proactive in explaining the needs and proper uses for reinsurance.”Discussion from participants is included.
