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.
