The insurance companies have to deal with specific risks as their field of activity: risks generated by undercutting premiums,incorrect sizing of technical reserves,unpredictable changes in the frequency of claims,an inadequate reinsurance and risk of general nature common to all types of businesses: incompetent management or maladministration development strategies,etc.
