NATIONAL SECTIONS' ACADEMIC ACTIVITIES
Dear Mr. President:
We address you hoping that your Section's activities are
running well and to advise you on the following matters:
1. As you are aware, the next Presidential Council meeting will
th
be held in Madrid on 11 November 2004.
The central topic of this reunion will be the planning of AIDA'S
XII World Insurance Law Congress, which will take place in
Buenos Aires (2006).
Specifically, the content of the
questionnaires that are being prepared by i) the Argentine
Section and ii) Profs. Robert Merkin and Jerome Kullman will
be reviewed; the latter were designated as general moderators
of the theme "Terrorism, Insurance and Reinsurance.
533570360
Other issues that will be discussed, according to the answers
submitted to the General Secretariat or the Presidency, are
those related to the National Sections' Structural and
Functional Diagnosis; and the Working Parties'.
As it has been customary in these institutional activities,
some Working Parties will host meetings; Accumulation and
Subrogation, as well as Prevention in Insurance and
Reinsurance will stage separate reunions.
2. The Presidential Council meeting will take place during the
Spanish-Portuguese Insurance Law Congress, organized by
the Spanish and Portuguese AIDA Sections. Attached please
find a copy of the academic program.
3. We have had the opportunity to iterate the importance of
receiving an answer to the questionnaire for the National
Section's Structural and Functional Diagnosis, which was
supposed to be completed by 8th August/04.
Though this topic will be treated in the Presidential Council
meeting, we have not received an answer by all of AIDA's
National Sections; therefore, we request your cooperation in
this respect if you have not sent it yet. This information is
crucial for the Presidential Council to examine the
corresponding information
If you have any doubt or need further information please
contact us at cijaramillo@cable.net.co.
4. We also invite you to promptly confirm your participation in
the Liber Amicorum, which will be dedicated to Prof. Antigono
Donati. For this purpose, please contact Prof. Agostino
Gambino,
President
of
the
Italian
Section
(roma@studiogambino.it), who is in charge of this project.
5. With respect to AIDA's Scientific Research Prize (20042006), we are glad to inform you that the terms and conditions
are being printed out and will be sent in different languages.
These terms and conditions will be posted on AIDA's
(www.aida.org.uk)
and
ACOLDESE's
websites
533570360
(www.aidacolombia.org),
channels.
as well
as
in
other
diffusion
In the interim, attached please find the terms and conditions
so that you can send them out to your section's member,
university's, relevant government entities, insurance and
reinsurance groups, law offices, and any person who can be
interested in the study of Insurance and Reinsurance Law.
The Prize's success or failure largely depends on its diffusion
and promotion, for which we thank you in advance.
6. AIDA-MAIL was recently sent; please advice Mr. M.
Mendelowitz,
if
you
did
not
receive
it
(mmendelowitz@blg.co.uk).
7. We are currently preparing another edition of AIDA-FLASH;
if you would like any information to be included, we would be
grateful for you to send it swiftly so that we can incorporate it.
8. AIDA-FLASH will mention the academic activities that were
recently hosted by AILA and ACOLDESE, as well as those that
will be held in the near future (XI Argentine Insurance Law
Rounds -www.aidaargentina.com.ar- and the Hungarian
Insurance Law Colloquium)

CONGRESO HISPANO-LUSO DE DERECHO DE
SEGUROS
CONGRESSO LUSO-HISPANO DE DIREITO DOS
SEGUROS
Madrid 11 y 12 de Noviembre de 2004
Centro de Convenciones MAPFRE
Bajo la Presidencia de Honor de S.A.R. Príncipe de Asturias
Justificación de la propuesta
¿Por qué un Congreso Luso-Hispano de Derecho de Seguros?
Los mercados de seguros español y portugués presentan características comunes que favorecen la
colaboración de los operadores de ambos mercados con el fin de aprovechar las experiencias de cada
uno de los países para mejorar las propias legislaciones y avanzar hacia un futuro de armonización de
las mismas como un mercado regional dentro de la Unión Europea.
Las diferentes experiencias legislativas de España y Portugal sirven como base para una reflexión
sobre sus ventajas e inconvenientes.
La legislación sobre seguros, sobre todo en su vertiente de ordenación del mercado, viene definida por
la necesidad de su sujeción a las Directivas comunitarias. Las distintas experiencias de Portugal y
España en su transposición será objeto de debate en el Congreso. España ha optado por una ley de
contrato de seguro que, en estos momentos, necesita una seria revisión. Muchas de las modificaciones
que se demandan son fruto de la necesidad de trasponer normas comunitarias, otras de la evolución
del mercado. Una revisión conjunta de las soluciones dadas por ambas legislaciones a problemas
similares puede ser de gran utilidad a la hora de plantear las necesarias modificaciones.
La cercanía de ambos países, fronterizos, hace necesario revisar los planteamientos de valoración del
daño personal en ambas legislaciones. España aprobó, en 1995, un Sistema de Valoración de Daños
Personales en Accidentes de Circulación, sobre el que, en estos días, se debate, en relación con su
posible aplicación a otros tipos de responsabilidad. Por otro lado, existe un avanzado proyecto de
Baremo Europeo de Daños Personales. Las experiencias españolas en la aplicación de unos criterios
legales de valoración pueden ser de gran utilidad para el mercado portugués, al tiempo que su visión de
la situación española permitirá valorar desde otra perspectiva las ventajas e inconvenientes de esta
legislación.
Los planteamientos para la previsión social complementaria son importantes en ambos países.
Mientras en España preocupa la carga económica del seguro social estatal, Portugal ha optado por un
sistema privado de aseguramiento de los accidentes de trabajo. Contrastar ambas experiencias y hacer
propuestas conjuntas de futuro será una de las metas de este Congreso.

La Sección Española de AIDA (SEAIDA)
SEAIDA es la Sección Española de la Asociación Internacional de Derecho de Seguros (AIDA),
constituida el 28 de octubre de 1961. Es miembro de pleno derecho de la AIDA con total autonomía en
el
ámbito
nacional.
SEAIDA es una persona jurídica privada, sin ánimo de lucro, de carácter independiente, cuyo objeto es
el estudio del derecho de seguros y de aquellas otras materias, dentro del campo del derecho y de la
economía, que afectan directamente a la institución aseguradora.
La participación de SEAIDA en la producción e interpretación del Derecho de Seguros es de gran
importancia, no sólo a través de la organización de foros sobre aspectos esencialmente complejos del
Derecho de Seguros, sino también debido a la presencia de miembros de SEAIDA en organismos
prelegislativos como la Comisión General de Codificación o la Junta Consultiva de Seguros.
SEAIDA está regida por un Consejo Directivo cuyos miembros son elegidos y renovados por la
Asamblea General.
SEDE DEL CONGRESO Y SECRETARIA:
El Congreso tendrá lugar en el CENTRO DE CONVENCIONES MAPFRE de Madrid; situado en el
corazón de Azca, zona estratégica de negocios, en General Perón, 40, frente al Palacio de Exposiciones
y Congresos y junto al Centro Comercial Moda Shopping, uno de las más prestigiosos de Madrid.
