Global Insurance Industry 2015-2020: Analysis of 120 Companies Including Leading Players Such as Allianz, AXA, Assicurazioni Generali, MetLife, New York Life Insurance, Northwestern Mutual Life – Research and Markets

Business Wire

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Insurance Industry - Forecast, Opportunities & Trends 2015-2020" report to their offering.

The insurance industry is a major constituent of the economy by virtue of the amount of premiums it collects, the scale of its investment and, more fundamentally, the significant social and economic role it plays by covering personal and business risk.

Global insurance premiums expanded by 3.8% in real terms in 2015, amidst variations in regional growth rates. There was a strong growth in the advanced markets of Asia, and a marked progress in North America and Western Europe, contributing to a 3.6% boost in global premium from 2.4% growth in 2014. Growth also increased in Latin America but was slower in the Middle East and Central Asia, and Africa, and premiums contracted in Central and Eastern Europe.

In non-life insurance, the key players in advanced markets were Asia, showcasing the highest growth, and there was a considerable gain in North America also. Growth was moderate in Western Europe however this was a significant improvement from prior years of stagnation. Emerging markets continue their robust premium growth trend (+7.8%), primarily driven by China.

Analysis of 120 major industry players through a company analysis, financial analysis and a SWOT analysis. Major companies analyzed include the Allianz Group, AXA, Assicurazioni Generali, MetLife, New York Life Insurance, Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance and many others around the world.
