Brazil is the world’s 17th largest insurance market and the largest in the Latin American region. The insurance industry in the country has expanded significantly over the last decade, driven by strong macroeconomic and microeconomic fundamentals, rising consumer awareness of insurance products, a partial relaxation of regulatory restrictions, and liberalization of the industry to allow foreign competition. The Brazilian non-life insurance market experienced healthy growth driven by a robust economy, expansion of broker channels and growing motor, property and construction markets. Brazil’s non-life insurance industry still faces challenges relating to low efficiency and barriers to competition. Another key challenge for the industry is the ongoing European debt crisis and fears of a double dip recession in the US, which will adversely impact Brazil’s GDP growth.
