Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/08/2012 -- The German insurance industry is considered one of the leading insurance industries in the world. During the review period (2007-2011), this industry registered varying growth rates due to the impact of global financial crisis. The German reinsurance segment is the largest in the European region. The recovery of the financial markets in 2010 had a positive influence on the labor market and correspondingly, property prices began to show signs of improvement. As a consequence, the life and non-life insurance segments are expected to register moderate growth rates over the forecast period (2012-2016) and drive the reinsurance segment.

Key Highlights

- The German reinsurance segment registered a sharp decline in 2009 due to the global financial crisis and the emergence of the European debt crisis.
- The regulatory changes in the reinsurance segment expose new challenges and opportunities with respect to competitive differentiation.
