The article is devoted to the actual topic — regulation of competition protection in the field of insurance. This article studies the principles and main characteristics of the system of legal regulation of competition protection in the sphere of financial services in the Russian Federation and analyzes the peculiarities of legal regulation of competition protection in the market of insurance services. Based on the results of this analysis the conclusions were made about the extreme limitation of special legislative regulation of certain issues of competition protection in the field of insurance and, to a large extent, the scarcity of administrative and judicial practice in relation to these aspects of insurance. The analysis also resulted in a proposal to the legislator to introduce a clause on provision of insurance services into the provisions of part 1 of Article 18 of the Law on Protection of Competition by means of transition from the conclusion of agreements with insurers by the representatives of the PPOs not through a request for quotations, but through more transparent procedures of an open auction and an open tender.
