Focus on M&As - Asian insurance M&A: Some legal and regulatory pitfalls

Insurance M&A activity in Asia has increased since 2008 not only due to the fallout from the global financial crisis but also due to the growth prospects of the insurance industry. Especially in the life insurance sector, there is a growing demand by an increasingly affluent population for products with both protection and accumulation features.
