近年來，我國正式成為WTO之成員，在保險市場方面，我國保險業面臨前所未有之挑戰，在與國際金融保險市場接軌之際，我國保險業無不戰戰兢兢。保險商品為保險業競爭之重要利器之一，商品之創新與多樣化則是未來保險業因應市場不同需求不可或缺之要素。 然而，目前我國保險商品大多須經冗長之核准程序，審查制度之僵化不僅減緩商品上市之時效，更使保險業之競爭優勢大打折扣，要求檢討現行我國保險商品審查制度之缺失乃時有所聞。 而本文以「保險商品審查制度之改進」為題，試圖發掘我國保險商品審查制度於法令上或實務運作上之缺失；其次援引美國保險監理官協會(NAIC)「加速商品上市化」(Speed to Market)之措施、紐約州及加州關於保險商品審查之相關規定為介紹；在其次就保險商品審查制度之改進的可行性方案為分析；最後做一建議與結論。

中文摘要 鑒於我國保險業為因應全球金融快速變革及市場競爭下的生存發展，全面推動保險監理現代化已是刻不容緩之事。而其中保險商品審查規定及審查效率是保險主管機關與保險業者角力的焦點之一。主管機關如何在協助保險業者快速的將商品推向市場與保障消費者權益間取得平衡的深奧學問，其中又以保險商品審查制度的良莠是主要關鍵因素。 美國保險監理官協會 (NAIC)於西元2000年的施政宣言中，將協助保險業者”加速審查保險商品” (Speed to Market)列為保險監理現代化最重要施政目標之一。”加速審查保險商品” 涉及保險商品審查制度之流程改善及作業簡化等問題，除了從制度面著手改革外，美國保險監理官協會並建置資訊系統 (SERFF)，將保險商品審查流程到導入電子化作業，不僅大幅提昇審查效率，更為業者及主管機關節省了大量紙張、郵遞、保存及調閱成本。 本研究將針對我國保險商品審查制度電子化進行探討，透過美國監理官協會之保險商品審查制度要求及電子化之工作模式探討，提出我國保險商品審查制度電子化之建議方案，作為保險監理現代化議題之參考。 關鍵詞：保險商品審查制度，Speed to Market，CARFRA，SERFF，Filing。 / Abstract Fueled by enhanced technology and globalization, the world financial markets are undergoing rapid changes.
