Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/09/2014 -- The Romanian reinsurance segment grew during the review period. By 2017, it is expected to value RON52.3 million (US$16.3 million). The life segment ceded the highest percentage of premium to reinsurers during the review period (2008-2012), a trend which is expected to continue over the forecast period (2012-2017). Romania was adversely affected by the 2008 financial crisis, but re-entered a growth phase in 2011. Growth in the reinsurance segment was partly driven by a rise in the volume of EU-sponsored infrastructure projects undertaken in the country, such as a EUR169.2 million (US$235 million) nuclear photonics project. Continued economic growth will contribute to the insurance industry's expansion and, consequently, drive the reinsurance segment.
