The life insurance & pensions market comprises life insurance and retirement savings products. However contributions made to the state social insurance are not included.

The value of the insurance industry is shown in terms of gross premium incomes which have been converted to US dollars at the 2004 annual average exchange rate.

Insurance markets depend on a variety of economic and non-economic factors and future performance is difficult to predict. The forecast given in this report is not based on a complex economic model, but is intended as a rough guide to the direction in which the markets are likely to move. This forecast is based on a correlation between past market growth and growth of base drivers, such as house price growth, GDP growth and long-term interest rates. This research was done before Hurricane Katrina struck and hence the forecast doesn't take into account any consequent rate hardening for catastrophe risks.
