LONDON, April 28, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Reportbuyer.com has added a new market research report:

Term Life Assurance in the UK, Key Trends and Opportunities to 2017

http://www.reportbuyer.com/banking_finance/insurance/life/term_life_assurance_uk_key_trends_opportunities_2017.html

Synopsis

• The report provides market analysis, information and insights into the UK term life assurance business.
• It provides a snapshot of market size and market segmentation.
• It analyzes drivers and the outlook for the market.
• It provides information on distribution channels for term life assurance products in the UK.
• It rounds up deals, news and regulatory developments.
• It provides a detailed analysis of the competitive landscape and key product features.

Summary

New business premiums in the term life assurance category grew by 7.7% in 2012, accompanied by an increase in mortgage-related protection sales. Term life assurance (excluding accelerated critical illness benefit) dominated the UK long-term protection market, accounting for 26.8% of the total new business regular premium in 2012. Household finances continued to be squeezed, which reduced the demand for discretionary term life and other protection products. The fall in mortgage lending led to a decline in sales of term life policies taken out with interest-only or repayment mortgages. The term life assurance category remained resilient, however, recording a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of -2.53% during the review period (2008?2012).

Level-term assurance products, offering the same level of cover throughout the period of the policy, accounted for 72.2% of the total term life new business premiums. Decreasing-term assurance policies, usually purchased by individuals who may only wish to protect their mortgage, represented 27.8% of the total new business premiums. Despite the difficult economic background and mortgage market instability, life insurers delivered a steady volume of new business in both the level and decreasing-term assurance sub-categories during the review period.

• This report provides a comprehensive analysis of the term life assurance market in the UK.
• It provides historical values for the UK's term life assurance market for the report's 2008–2012 review period and forecast figures for the 2013–2017 forecast period.

• It analyses the key features of term life assurance products.
• It provides an overview of market dynamics and market drivers.
• It discusses various distribution channels for term life assurance products in the UK.
• It profiles top term life assurance providers in the UK, and outlines the key regulatory changes affecting them.
