| Frictional costs occur when insurers have to operate under higher financial costs and capital requirements. Sox is now thought in many quarters to have been a disaster, increasing frictional costs and bureaucracy and providing a field day for legal and accountancy firms, without changing the behaviour which causes the problems. The advent of UK Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs), in particular, offers the prospect of a new dynamic in the investment market which has the potential to assist the development of the derivative market if the experience of other markets is followed whereby REITs have preferred to use derivatives to manage portfolio exposures whilst retaining asset holdings and minimising frictional costs. |
