Global Reinsurance Carriers - Industry Market Research Report

Global Reinsurance Carriers

The Global Reinsurance Carriers industry has encountered significant challenges over the five years to 2019. However, considering an operating landscape consisting of a soft pricing cycle, low interest rates and an increased occurrence of natural disasters, the industry has performed well. Investment income in the industry has been weak as interest rates remained low throughout major global economies. However, reinsurers have been increasingly able to improve premium prices after a prolonged soft market. Emerging markets are expected to continue to grow and higher per capita disposable income in these countries will likely result in consumers becoming more inclined to purchase big-ticket items such as cars and homes. As a result, demand for industry services is expected to increase, which is expected to drive revenue growth alongside a continued improvement in premium prices.

Operators in this industry focus on assuming all or part of the risk associated with existing insurance policies originally underwritten by direct insurance carriers. In other words, the primary activity of this industry is insuring insurance companies.

This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
