DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/3bc9br/finance_and_insura)
has announced the addition of the "Finance
& Insurance Sector" report to their offering.

companies with combined annual revenues of more than $3 trillion. Major
firms include AIG, Bank of America, Citigroup, Fidelity, Goldman Sachs,
JPMorgan Chase, MetLife, and Wells Fargo. Other major companies in the
sector include credit card processing firm First Data Corporation,
brokerage firm Charles Schwab, investment services firm Value Line, and
REITs such as Simon Property Group. The sector is concentrated: the
largest 50 companies account for nearly 50 percent of sales.

trillion annually. Top global firms include Industrial and Commercial
Bank of China, French bank Societe Generale, Germany'sDeutsche Bank,
French insurer AXA, and Brazilian government-owned bank Caixa Economica
Federal. Demand for sophisticated financial services is expected to grow
in Asia, particularly China and Indonesia.
COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE
Demand is driven by business activity, returns on investments, and
consumer income. The profitability of individual companies depends on
marketing, efficient operations, and investment expertise. Large
companies often have advantages in access to cheaper capital,
participation in large-scale transactions, and name recognition. Small
companies can compete effectively through customer service, knowledge of
the local market, and specialization. The industry is capital-intensive
and highly automated: annual revenue per employee varies due to the
number of industry groups but averages around $6000,000.
The finance and insurance sector has undergone significant change in the
past decade, and more changes are likely.
