Noida, India, September 26, 2009 --(PR.com)-- The non-life insurance sector in South Korea is growing at a good pace, mainly driven by long term insurance and automobile insurance. As a result, the share of non-life insurance surged from 30.33% in FY 2007 to an estimated 33.23% in FY 2008. Moreover, the sector is forecast to grow at a CAGR of over 9% between FY 2009 and FY 2012 due to the perennial demand in private health insurance.

The premiums are forecasted to grow at a CAGR of over 6% during FY 2009 to FY 2012. The on-going demand for after-retirement protection-type products as well as health insurance products, including accident and illness, and medical expense coverage products are expected to drive this growth.
Besides, premiums collected in automobile insurance increased at a CAGR of over 10% between FY 2005 and FY 2008 as a result of increase in imported car sales amidst the shift in automobile market to high-end and larger car segments. Moreover, during the forecast period (FY 2009 – FY 2012), premiums are anticipated to grow at a CAGR of over 15% as the economic recession fades away.
