Summary
The author considers the regulation of the insurance contract from the perspective of regulatory approach, starting with Prof. Bunge’s Codification (Part III of the Baltic Local Laws Collection “Civil Laws”) to this day. The discussion concerns three  different approaches used for regulation of insurance contract in different periods. The discussion starts with Prof. Bunge’s approach while drafting the Codification of 1864 – the predecessor of the current Civil Law. Afterwards, the approach used by the Latvian legislator is is analysed, as the Civil Law was drafted in 1930s, leading to its adoption in 1937 in conjunction with the drafting of commercial law regulation. Finally, the author considers the modern approach to insurance contract regulation after the restoration of the Civil Law in 1992–1993, which is currently carried out within a separate legal act, i.e. the Insurance Contract Act. The article ends with the conclusion summarising the discussion reflected in the article.
