Reinsurance in China, Key Trends and Opportunities to 2016: Foreign Reinsurers will Gain Market Share with Removal of Compulsory Cession to Domestic Reinsurers
NEW YORK, Feb. 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue:
Synopsis
The report provides top-level market analysis, information and insights into the Chinese reinsurance market, including:
• The Chinese reinsurance market's growth prospects by reinsurance categories
• The Chinese reinsurance market's growth prospects by reinsurance ceded from direct insurance segments
• The competitive landscape in the Chinese reinsurance insurance market
Summary
With notable developments taking place in China's overall insurance industry, the reinsurance market in China exhibited healthy growth during the review period. The China Insurance Regulatory Commission (CIRC) relaxed its rules regarding preferential treatment for domestic reinsurers, although the state-owned China Reinsurance Group continues to dominate the market. The CIRC is in particular encouraging the development of the international shipping insurance and reinsurance markets in Shanghai.
Scope
This report provides a comprehensive analysis of the reinsurance market in China:
• It provides historical values for China's reinsurance market for the report's 2007–2011 review period and forecast figures for the 2012–2016 forecast period
• It offers a detailed analysis of the key sub-segments in China's reinsurance market, along with market forecasts until 2016
• It provides a detailed analysis of the reinsurance ceded from various direct insurance markets in China and its growth prospects
• It profiles the top reinsurance companies in China
Reasons To Buy
• Make strategic business decisions using top-level historic and forecast market data related to the Chinese reinsurance market and each sector within it
• Understand the demand-side dynamics, key market trends and growth opportunities within the Chinese reinsurance market
• Assess the competitive dynamics in the reinsurance market
• Identify the growth opportunities and market dynamics within key product categories
Key Highlights
• The growth in the Chinese reinsurance market has been primarily due to the high number of natural disasters that have occurred in China, which led to an increasing demand for low-priced life insurance products. The market has also been supported by robust growth in the country's life, non-life, and accident and health insurance segments
• The CIRC in particular is encouraging the development of an international shipping insurance and reinsurance market in Shanghai. Insurers are increasingly pursuing expertise and are using not just domestic markets, but the London market as well as European and Bermudan reinsurers
• The facultative reinsurance category accounted for 60.2% of Chinese reinsurance market in 2011, while the treaty reinsurance category had a lower market share of 26.3%
• The CIRC has set down minimum requirements which define the financial strength of foreign reinsurers. The regulator's rules include a minimum level of paid-up capital and ratings
• The China Reinsurance Group is the largest reinsurance provider in China, although other foreign reinsurers such as Hannover Re and Munich Re have opened offices in China and are attempting to increase their presence in the reinsurance market
