European insurance union and how to get there

The main argument for insurance union is that it would lead to the more effective supervision of cross-border insurance groups, which is an internal market argument. The appropriate scope would thus be the entire EU.

By contrast, the main rationale for banking union was to break the doom loop between banks and sovereigns, which posed a problem for the euro area.
