Oman Insurance Report Q3 2008Published by: Business Monitor International Published: Sep. 17, 2008 - 60 Pages Table of Contents
AbstractIn Q308, the key change is that we have incorporated much more information about the companies thatare operating across the regions of which each country is a part. We have sought to make it much clearerwho is operating in each country and under what name(s). Perhaps equally importantly, our profiles makeit plain which multinational companies are not operating in each country.In the Middle East and North Africa, we profile 17 companies. These are AGF, AIG, Allianz, Aviva,AXA, Cardif, ERGO, Eureko, Fortis, Generali, Groupama, HSBC Insurance, Liberty Mutual,MAPFRE, RSA, UNIQA and Zurich Financial Services. We also look at a number of the smaller local firms that are active in the region, particularly in Kuwait,Oman, Saudi Arabia and the UAE. For almost all the countries whose reports we are updating, we arealso able to include actual data for calendar-year 2007; this was not the case for our Q208 reports.In 2007, total premiums in Oman rose by 26% to OMR182mn. Non-life premiums rose by 23% toOMR157mn, while life premiums rose by 47% to OMR25mn. Between now and the end of the forecast period, we expect that annual non-life premiums will grow byOMR79mn, while annual life premiums should increase by OMR33mn. Growth in non-life premiumsshould be driven by the general growth in nominal GDP plus a rise in non-life penetration from thecurrent level of 1.05% to 1.30%. Growth in life premiums should be driven by the change in the overallpopulation and a rise in life density from US$20.00 to US$40.00 per capita.BMI’s Insurance Business Environment Rating is 48.0.
