The “Chambre d'Assurance et de Grosse Aventure de France”, inspired by Colbert, was officially established in Paris in 1668 by a royal edict. This Chamber was a kind of Club where professionals practicing marine insurance received brokers and clients, exchanged information, discussed among themselves the practices and conditions of their profession. In a short time, they codified customs, drew up a standard policy, instituted a joint arbitration commission to settle their disputes with the insured. A clerk centralized and disseminated information, drew up the police, established the settlement dispaches and kept a directory of all ships, a register of arbitral awards, a register of damage declarations. In 1836, the Insurers decided to reorganize and set up the Réunion des Assureurs Maritimes de Paris. This association recruited a "lifeguard captain", appointed many common agents in France and abroad (origin of our Damage Commissioners), created a general secretariat, a legal service, a technical service, a dispaches office and a financial office and took the name of Comité des Assureurs Maritimes de Paris. In 1942, the Paris Committee was transformed into the Central Committee of Maritime Insurers of France which in 1988 became the Committee of Studies and Services of Maritime and Transport Insurers (CESAM). Economic Interest Grouping, service provider, CESAM brings together all French and foreign insurance companies that operate in the “Maritime and Transport” branch. THE 2016 MEETING FLASH INFO!
