Global recession is not likely to rock the Indian insurance industry in a big way; therefore, there is nothing to panic about, says a Senior Research Analyst at RNCOS. However, most of the life insurance players are expecting their new business premium collection to ease down in the remaining financial year.
Citing reason for the moderation in premium collection, analyst stated that consumer sentiments are affecting the insurance industry because most of the prospective customers are putting their buying plans on hold. However, buying insurance products is a long-term investment and the ongoing crisis is not going to impact the returns on the assets. Low consumer sentiments are signaling just a temporary phase and likely to continue for another six to nine months, and thus, things will be different by this time next year.
Moreover, the Indian insurance market has joined the league of the fastest growing insurance markets in the Asian region, with the total insurance premium projected to grow at a CAGR of more than 50% between 2008-09 and 2010-11.
A new research report – “Booming Insurance Market in India (2008-2011)†from RNCOS – also says that the Indian insurance industry will show upward trend in future as it has displayed in the last few years owing to large population and vast untapped market.
After analyzing the growth potential of the Indian insurance market, the report says that many foreign investors have shown interest in the industry because the markets in most of the developed countries have reached saturation. Thus, foreign players have turned their attention to the emerging economies, and India is more lucrative as compared to other emerging economies, with more favorable environment for insurance expansion as the country has low insurance penetration.
In addition, “Booming Insurance Market in India (2008-2011)†contains exhaustive information along with statistical data on various segments of the industry that will help clients to analyze the leading-edge opportunity critical for the success of the industry. The report also includes forecast to give an idea to clients in which direction the industry is likely to move.
