The book covers the methods and techniques of financial management and regulations for insurance accounting in the aftermath of insurance sector liberalization. This is a dynamic area and more reforms are expected in International Financial Reporting System (IFRS), but such provisions are yet to crystallize in the Indian insurance environment. Insurance management is a critical process of fund management. Insurance accounting is a special type of financial accounting based on Indian Accounting Standards, accounting regulations and the provisions of the Companies Act and the Insurance Act. The book exhorts the readers to remain dynamically tuned to the changes in accounting practices.
