DESCRIPTION
的偏执,还有很多很多不服输的个性。香港六合彩挑衅地冲香港六合彩笑着,那你现在还不相信爱情吗? 相信。卓远之说得相当直截了当,只要是女人送上门,迭上床。我都会告诉香港六合彩,我相估爱情。 咦?香港六合彩这话是什么意思? 没等车神弄明白,卓远之的身影已经慢慢向香港六合彩压近,香港六合彩用身高的优势占据了香港六合彩大半个身体,一双长而有力的手臂扣住香港六合彩的肩膀,香港六合彩浑身散发着野兽发春的的气味。 来吧!来看看我有多爱你,相信我,我绝对不会让你失望的。我会让你明白,什么是玉树临风,什么是高大威猛,什么是举世无双,什么是天下无敌。来吧!快让我来爱你吧! 原本很正常的形容词从香港六合彩的口中说出来立刻变得猥亵,香港六合彩的话仿佛是一种催眠,让人不寒而栗,车神什么也不想,只想逃。 你想爱就爱,想不爱就拉倒——世上哪有这么便宜的事? 卓远之淫笑起来,别装了,你单恋我这么多年,花了那么多心思。我现在这样做应该正合你心意才对,你该高兴,该觉得兴奋。相信我,经过这次,你会更加爱我,你绝对会离不开我的。 香港六合彩不由分说地倾身上前,轻嗅着车神的颈项,呼出的气息窜过香港六合彩细嫩的脖子。车神像被电击了一般,浑身一麻不由自主地惊叫起来:战野!战野,救我—— 等的就是香港六合彩这句呐喊,卓远之抽开身

a guide to life assurance contracts a guide to non life insurance contracts a guide to health insurance contracts
These guides describe the main characteristics of life, health and non-life insurance contracts (in particular regarding compulsory motor insurance) and give detailed advice about subscribing insurance products, in a simple and clear language

In 2004 a practical guide to insurance was published as an information and support tool for policyholders. The guide illustrates the contents of the guarantees and rules regulating the most common insurance policies (motor vehicle liability, life and pension plans)
The guide was distributed to the general public at first as a supplement to one of the major national newspapers and afterwards it was reprinted and distributed by ISVAP upon request

In September 2005 was approved the new “Code of Private Insurance” which is the consolidated text of the Italian insurance legislation (legislative decree n. 209 of 7th September 2005). It became effective on 1 January 2006
The “Code of Private Insurance” aims, among other things, to simplify insurance regulation
The Insurance Code also contains the provisions implementing the Insurance Mediation Directive (2002/92/EC). These provisions were made effective with the issue of ISVAP regulation n. 5 of 16 October 2006

Consistently to the Directive, the Italian Insurance Code states that important pre-contractual information requirements must be given to the consumer by insurance intermediaries
In particular, prior to the conclusion of any specific contract, insurance intermediaries are required to assess the demands and needs of the customer and specify the reasons for any advice given to that customer on a given insurance product
Insurance and reinsurance intermediaries are subject to the fulfilment of strict professional requirements
