metadata.value: In recent years Polish insurance law has undergone a series of rapid changes. The key driving
  force behind these changes has been the need to adapt national legal regulations to requirements
  of Community law. Consumer pressure has also been a powerful influence, as a result
  of which insurance services are gradually becoming more customer-friendly. Polish laws on
  insurance contracts have been developing primarily in the following directions: strengthening
  the position of insurance service customers, creating dedicated regulations for group insurance,
  extending the scope of compulsory insurance, ensuring full compensation for traffic accident
  damages, and regulation of insurance distribution business (including insurance intermediaries).
  This article discusses basic issues of insurance law under the Polish legal system
  and general trends in its development, especially as regards adapting national regulations to
  requirements of European Union, the strengthening of the position of the customers buying
  insurance services, creation of regulations dedicated for group insurance, and extending the
  scope of compulsory insurance and ensuring full compensation for traffic accident damages.
  In particular, the article addresses issues of insurance contracts, protection of clients of insurance
  services (favoring customers concluding and delivery of insurance contracts), compulsory
  insurance, insurance concluded on behalf of a third party, group insurance, and new rules
  of insurance distribution in European and Polish law. The article indicates the main legislative
  acts of the Polish insurance law and the most important decisions and resolutions of the Polish
  Supreme Court.
