– Regulations have sweeping implications for both conventional insurance and Takaful companies<\/b><\/p>\n

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates, June 18, 2015 \/ PRNewswire –\u00a0Milliman, Inc., a premier global consulting and actuarial firm, today published research on regulatory reform in the United Arab Emirates.
