In the same year, whole life insurance density also fell sharply and totalled a value of GBP 384, whilst the whole insurance penetration represented 1.6% of the UK’s GDP.

The demand for whole life insurance products is forecast to witness upward trend, driven by steady economic recovery, rising disposable incomes and increasing life expectancy. However, continued macroeconomic uncertainty is likely to constrain growth in the category and life insurers will face competition from the banking and wealth management sector offering savings and investment alternatives.
