Book excerpt: Since the deregulation of the Indian insurance sector in 1999, the market-share of the country's sole largest public-sector player Life Insurance Corporation of India has drastically gone down with the entry of private players. The abrupt rise in the presence of private players has eventually raised concerns about the performances of the life insurance players in safeguarding the interests of the policyholders. Further, the global financial crisis of 2007-08 had its contagion effects in the Indian insurance industry, the ripples of which were even felt in the performances of the Indian life insurers. The study thus makes an attempt to evaluate the operational efficiencies, productivity and financial health of the life insurance companies in India, covering the period from 2008-09 to 2014-15 against the backdrop of the global financial crisis and the insurance sector deregulation in India. The study has also hinted at the monopolistic-competition type of market structure prevailing in the country's life insurance sector. The study further gave indications about the commendable turnaround manifested by the life insurers from the spill-over effects of the financial crisis post 2010.

Public sector insurers continue to command a majority of the market and life insurance predominates, with about 75 percent of total premiums. Non-life insurance is dominated by motor insurance. Penetration rates are unchanged from 2011 and generally lower than in comparator countries, especially in non-life. Although traditional sale channels continue to predominate, there is increasing diversity in distribution. Risks in life insurance are relatively well spread and in non-life are mainly short-term.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book traces the development and analyses the performance of life insurance industry in India, since inception of this sector, using different business indicators over the years. It discusses the evolution and changing features of the Indian insurance industry in 3 phases: phase I from 1818 to 1956, phase II from 1956 to 2000 (known as the nationalisation period) and phase III post 2000 (called the post reform period). The book also measures the relative efficiency and productivity of the life insurance industry in India for the post-reform period, by employing Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). Despite the fact that the life insurance sector recorded a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17% in terms of total premiums and 21% in terms of new business premium collections during the post reform period, the insurers continue to grapple with the issue of profitability. Against this background, the book presents results on the factors determining profitability of the life insurance companies using measures of efficiency and competition. By helping regulatory authorities determine the future course of action in the context of entry of foreign insurers and also in establishing a level playing field, the book has important policy implications.

Book Synopsis The Impacts of Financial Crisis on Insurance Industry by : Van Anh Nguyen

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many people believed that insurance is regarded a shock absorber of the economy, then it might not be the sector that was affected by the current financial crisis. However, the collapse of America International Group (AIG) in 2008 has ignited a question of the link between the financial crisis and insurance industry. Although, there were several studies and papers of International Monetary Fund or Geneva Association of Insurance, etc' which discussed about the possible impacts of the financial crisis, rarely there had studies referring to the different roles of insurance in the economy. This thesis aimed to discover the impacts of the financial crisis on insurance sector regarding its various roles. Insurer play two roles in the economy: one as the financial player where it makes profit from the earned premium in the financial market and the other as its normal activity, insurance, which is related to the general economic stage. So the insurance industry had to suffer during the period of crisis in both two ways. In spite of the limited data, this report believes to give the readers an overview of insurers' condition through the period of financial crisis after outlining the major impacts and studying the several specific cases. The impacts from financial markets were due to the collapse of the securities market and the loss on subprime mortgage. In general economic stage, insurance companies felt the heat of the crisis through the shrinkage of demand in insurance products and the rise of insurance fraud. Moreover, it showed that the consequences heavily depended on the connection between the insurers with the financial world and the development of the market where insurance companies operate. That is why Vietnam represents the special case which still enjoys the growth rate of 20-30% per year. In addition, life insurance was affected much more than non-life insurance because of its extensive investment portfolio. By studying three famous case studies (AIG, ING Group and Bao Viet Holdings), the thesis strengthens the points which were made in the theoretical part. It is important to notice that not all of the mentioned symptoms happened to every insurance company. The impacts on insurance sector depended on the link between the company and financial market, the development level of the industry, the company's investment portfolio and the operation's areas. The company could be hit by its financial activities like AIG or by the regions it operated like ING Insurance or by the general economic recession like Bao Viet Holdings. The slash of AIG's stock and the sharp decline of financial activities proved that financial department was the reason for all the mess of ING. Meanwhile, ING Insurance's loss was resulted from its activities in the US, the origin of the financial crisis, following was Europe. Finally, Bao Viet Holdings was the typically insurance company which only had insurance activities in one developing country, Vietnam, an immature insurance market. It still enjoyed the development of 10% in life insurance and 20% in non-life insurance. The real reason for this surprising fact was the lack of relationship between insurance sector and financial market and the underdeveloped insurance environment containing of only traditional products.

It provides a brief overview of the insurance industry and reviews the risks it faces, as well as several recent failures of insurance companies that had systemic implications.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The global economy has experienced four waves of rapid debt accumulation over the past 50 years. The first three debt waves ended with financial crises in many emerging market and developing economies. During the current wave, which started in 2010, the increase in debt in these economies has already been larger, faster, and broader-based than in the previous three waves. Current low interest rates mitigate some of the risks associated with high debt. However, emerging market and developing economies are also confronted by weak growth prospects, mounting vulnerabilities, and elevated global risks. A menu of policy options is available to reduce the likelihood that the current debt wave will end in crisis and, if crises do take place, will alleviate their impact.

Download or read book Lessons and Policy Implications from the Global Financial Crisis written by Mr.Luc Laeven and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2010-02-01 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ongoing global financial crisis is rooted in a combination of factors common to previous financial crises and some new factors. The crisis has brought to light a number of deficiencies in financial regulation and architecture, particularly in the treatment of systemically important financial institutions, the assessments of systemic risks and vulnerabilities, and the resolution of financial institutions. The global nature of the financial crisis has made clear that financially integrated markets, while offering many benefits, can also pose significant risks, with large real economic consequences. Deep reforms are therefore needed to the international financial architecture to safeguard the stability of an increasingly financially integrated world.
Download or read book India written by Arvind Panagariya and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2008-03-03 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The subject of India's rapid growth in the past two decades has become a prominent focus in the public eye. A book that documents this unique and unprecedented surge, and addresses the issues raised by it, is sorely needed. Arvind Panagariya fills that gap with this sweeping, ambitious survey. India: The Emerging Giant comprehensively describes and analyzes India's economic development since its independence, as well as its prospects for the future. The author argues that India's growth experience since its independence is unique among developing countries and can be divided into four periods, each of which is marked by distinctive characteristics: the post-independence period, marked by liberal policies with regard to foreign trade and investment, the socialist period during which Indira Ghandi and her son blocked liberalization and industrial development, a period of stealthy liberalization, and the most recent, openly liberal period. Against this historical background, Panagariya addresses today's poverty and inequality, macroeconomic policies, microeconomic policies, and issues that bear upon India's previous growth experience and future growth prospects. These provide important insights and suggestions for reform that should change much of the current thinking on the current state of the Indian economy. India: The Emerging Giant will attract a wide variety of readers, including academic economists, policy makers, and research staff in national governments and international institutions. It should also serve as a core text in undergraduate and graduate courses that deal with Indias economic development and policies.
