Abstract
This two-part study aims at identifying occurrences related to market abuse and irregularities in the financial services sector and their impact on the operation of insurance intermediaries in Poland. While analyzing Polish and foreign literature as well as reports published by financial market institutions, the author discusses various examples of such incidents, which are not only characteristic of domestic market practice, in order to identify the sources of legal risk. Furthermore, he indicates the threats which influence the operation of insurance intermediation entities, which results in the necessity to establish and implement appropriate legal risk management processes. Part II of the article is devoted to such risk factors as: unfair market practices, practices infringing collective consumer interests and/or insurance offences.
