Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/09/2014 -- Romania's non-life segment is the largest in the country's insurance industry and accounted for 74.2% of the gross written premium in 2012. The country's non-life segment was adversely impacted by the global financial crisis of 2008. This adversely affected the demand for non-life insurance products from companies, several of which closed down. The motor insurance category, particularly the motor hull sub-category, was also adversely affected by a reduction in bank lending and therefore the weakened capacity of Romanians to purchase cars.
