The Letter

Since 1966, The Letter^SM has established itself as an authority on domestic and international business insurance news. Packed with relevant material, it provides information on the latest business insurance developments, features monthly opinion and topical articles on a broad range of insurance issues with sharp analysis on current events, written by local experts from around the world.

Market Guides

To understand local insurance conditions around the world and to plan international program design, ISN publishes the well respected ISN Country Insurance Market Guides. These reports focus on local insurance requirements, compulsory coverages, legislation, supervision, non-admitted insurance, and major types of policies by class plus more.

In a changing world the last thing a decision maker needs is out of date information on compliance, regulation and taxation aspects of their worldwide insurance protection. Penalties, fines, job losses and uncovered claims can result. ISN’s Country Information provides up to date information clearly and concisely.

I find the ISN website is a great place for a wide range of information. It has deep country information in the Country Guides section–population, insurance regulations, etc, and I also use it for quick information checks. I love the Country and City Telephone Codes and Time Zones page(s). These are easy references for regularly checked info points.
