London, UK (PRWEB) March 12, 2014
Since 2007, the Lebanese insurance industry has witnessed robust growth owing to the favourable political climate. In terms of gross written premiums (GWP), the domestic insurance industry registered 10.5% CAGR during 2007-2012. In 2012, Lebanon was ranked 1st in the Middle East and MENA region and 48th in the world in terms of insurance penetration. In the same year, the life sector was led by the individual life category, accounting for just over 59% of the total sector. Meanwhile, the non-life sector was dominated by the motor insurance category.
Owing to the minimum paid-up capital (just USD 1.5 million), the national market is inhabited by numerous insurance companies. In 2012, there were 52 operational insurers in the Lebanese insurance industry, which is characterized as highly competitive. However, the local insurers are under the growing pressure to perform profitably on the back of the intensifying conflict in Syria together with a negative influence of the debt crisis in the Eurozone. MetLife ALICO, Bankers Assurance, MEDGULF S.A.L., ALLIANZ SNA and AROPE Insurance are among the most prominent participants in Lebanon’s insurance market.
