Executive summary

Panama is one of the most promising economies in Central America, and the second-largest in Latin America after Chile. The country's economy is dependent on its service industry, especially banking and tourism, and ranked 40th on the 2013 Global Competiveness Index. The industry grew in terms of gross written premium value recording a review-period (2009–2013) CAGR of 10.3%. Over the forecast period (2013–2018), the industry is projected to register a CAGR of 9.7%. Following a process of currency substitution, Panama adopted the US dollar after independence, which resulted in a fall in transaction costs when trading with other countries also using the dollar. The industry is regulated by Superintendent of Insurance and Reinsurance (SSRP) and consists of 32 insurers. The five leading insurers together accounted for 62.8% (US$496.4 million) of the total industry's premium in 2013.

Executive summary

In terms of gross written premium, the Singaporean non-life insurance segment registered a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.4% during the review period (2009–2013). The growth was driven by strong demand from offshore markets, rising passenger car sales in the domestic market, expanding construction activity and sustained economic development. Significant public spending on infrastructure development also contributed to the growth. Since 2009, the government has spent approximately SGD15.0 billion (US$12.0 billion) annually on the development of physical infrastructure, which has had both a direct and indirect impact on the country's financial sector. Positive economic trends, a favorable regulatory framework, continuous public spending on infrastructure development and healthy offshore business are likely to drive the non-life segment over the forecast period (2013–2018). The segment is expected to post a CAGR of 8.0% in 2018.
