The Saudi Arabian Monetary Agency (SAMA) was put in charge of regulating and keeping an eye on the insurance industry. Property insurance is a type of insurance that covers potential risks to private property, including factories, companies, goods, and warehouses, as it is insured against any disaster such as fire, lightning, etc.
The insurance sector basically provides protection for any country's economy. Social awareness is a major component and challenge for insurance companies. The COVID-19 impact on the property and casualty (P&C) insurance industry was varied, with dwindling premium income in personal lines, increasing demand in professional liability, and a slowdown in specialty lines.
Saudi Arabia Property and Casualty Insurance Market Trends
Saudi Arabia Motor Insurance has Growth Potential
Motor insurance generates one-third of the market share in the property and casualty market. An increase in motor vehicle sales and registration of new vehicles also has a positive trend in terms of premiums. In the Saudi market, motor vehicles must insure the vehicle rather than the driver against incidents involving the owner or authorized driver. All vehicles must have at least third-party liability insurance. This covers all costs incurred by third parties in any incidents. This has led to positive and tremendous growth in motor insurance premiums.Highest growth in Central region of Saudi Arabia in terms Gross Written Premiums
