M2 - Wed Jul 23, 6:56AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/8559kx/life_insurance_in) has announced the addition of the "Life Insurance in the UK, Key Trends and Opportunities to 2018" report to their offering. The life insurance segment in the UK accounted for 69.3% of the total industry's gross written premium in 2013 after posting a review-period (2009-2013) compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 0.4%. The slower growth was associated with lower consumer confidence after the global financial and European debt crises, which led to a decline in the segment from 2008 until 2011. However, due to government actions and regulatory changes, the overall life segment increased at a CAGR of 4.0% during 2011-2013. Group life insurance recorded positive growth, although individual life insurance declined due to low levels of confidence in investments, increased regulatory scrutiny by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), and changes in pensions during the review period. Key Highlights - The life insurance segment in the UK accounted for 69.3% of the total industry's gross written premium in 2013. - The life insurance segment in the UK is very well developed, with a high penetration rate of 8.7% of GDP in 2013. - The introduction of the Retail Distribution Review (RDR) in December 2012, a government initiative designed to increase consumer trust and confidence in insurance products and services, is expected to drive future growth in the life segment. - Group life insurance recorded positive growth when compared to individual life insurance, due to the high volume of overseas business. - In 2014, the UK government announced changes in the pension regime, including giving workers more control over their pension funds after retirement. - The UK life segment is concentrated, with the top 10 companies accounting for 78.7% of the segment's gross written premium in 2012.

Life Insurance in the United Kingdom, Key Trends and Opportunities to 2017
M2 - Fri Aug 30, 8:56AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/4tczmq/life_insurance_in) has announced the addition of the "Life Insurance in the United Kingdom, Key Trends and Opportunities to 2017" report to their offering. Life insurance was the largest segment in the UK insurance industry in 2012, accounting for 70.4% of total industry premiums. It is also one of the largest life insurance segments in Europe in gross written premium terms. The impact of the financial crisis, and subsequent European debt crisis, during the review period (2008-2012) resulted in a decline in consumer confidence. This decline adversely affected the demand for long-term insurance products, resulting in an overall decline in the UK life segment. However, the segment is expected to record growth over the forecast period following various initiatives taken by the government and life insurers. Life insurance products are predominantly distributed through brokers, with this channel accounting for 66.2% of the segment's new business written premiums in 2012. The segment's value declined at a review-period CAGR of 3.9%, however, the segment is expected to record a forecast-period CAGR of 1.5%. Growth will be driven by improvements in the UK's economy, with IMF estimates expecting GDP to grow at a forecast-period CAGR of 2.2%. In addition, the expected implementation of Solvency II in January 2015 will result in stricter solvency and capital requirements, better risk management and higher profits.
