Bancassurance on the EU market – specificalities of the polish law

Abstract

The increase of interest in bancassurance as a form of distribution of insurance products in Poland provides many challenges for the market. The EU Directive on insurance mediation, local Polish regulations and the self-regulations of the Polish market players became an interesting topic for legal discussion on how bancassurance should be structured in Poland, and whether it requires any additional regulations. This article discusses the specific regulations of the Polish market in connection with the EU regulations.
