handle is hein.journals/fdicbnkrv15 and id is 1 raw text is: Banking Review Catastrophe Securities and the Market Sharing of Deposit Insurance Risk by Kevin P Sheehan (page 1) The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) and the property/casualty insurance industry have both faced a considerable increase in concentration risk over the past several decades. Property/casualty insurance companies have attempted to address their increased exposure through reinsurance, using either conventional reinsurers or innovative market instruments. The article examines a number of issues the FDIC will face if it takes a similar approach to reducing its exposure to large-bank failure. Risk Assessment: Results of an International Survey of Deposit Insurers by Jane F Coburn and John P O'Keefe (page 17) The authors summarize and discuss results of a Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation survey of foreign deposit insurance organizations. The article focuses on risk-assessment practices of these deposit insurance organizations.
