Research and Markets Adds Report: The Insurance Industry in Finland, Key Trends and Opportunities to 2016 [Professional Services Close – Up]

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "The Insurance Industry in Finland, Key Trends and Opportunities to 2016" report to its offerings.

In a release, Research and Markets noted that report highlights include:

The Finnish insurance industry is well developed and has one of the highest penetration rates among the European Union (EU) countries. The industry is fairly protected resulting in high concentration in the hands of domestic players.

Since 2007, all types of commission payments are banned in the financial services industry by the Finnish Financial Supervisory Authority (Fin-FSA). A typical feature of Finnish insurance is that statutory insurance products such as employee pension, workers' compensation and motor liability insurance generate a major share of gross written premiums.

Uncertainty in the European region has affected the investment returns of the companies. A growing trend of consolidation has been witnessed in the industry in order to expand the product portfolio and create synergies in business. Over the forecast period, economic recovery and improvement in market conditions will have a positive effect on premium income.
