Uncertain Times: A Chief Investment Officer’s Journey

Uncertain Times is a most unusual business book. It takes you on a journey with an investment professional who has to cope with some of the deepest challenges of his career. While telling his story, Uncertain Times will show you how to develop, improve and streamline the investment process in his industry, one that makes unique demands on investment professionals — insurance. The safety and security of our institutions are continually being questioned in these challenging financial times. Although we rely on them, few people understand the process by which insurance companies invest their assets in order to be able to pay policy holders’ claims. No previous book has outlined this unique process with such meticulous precision. Uncertain Times gives an insider’s view. Whether you work for an insurer, regulate insurers, provide services to insurers or — like everyone else — are a policyholder concerned about how your insurer is run, this book will be invaluable to you.
