Although the Russian insurance industry is fairly underdeveloped, it has immense growth potential and is poised to grow rapidly in coming years, said “Russian Insurance Industry Forecast to 2010”, a new research report from RNCOS. The value of the life insurance market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.6% during 2008-2011.
 
Many government initiatives such as opening insurance sector to foreign insurers and relatively stable economic environment in this tough time of economic downturn have not only given impetus to the insurance sector, but also encouraged people to invest in long-term products such as general insurance and life insurance in particular. Moreover, insurance companies will have to launch new products in the market to tap the rising demand. Amendments in tax regulations have reduced the size of non-risk-based products, making the market more transparent.
 
With the enactment of laws that mandate property insurance, the overall insurance market will certainly see an upward movement. At present, the Russian insurance market is fragmented and unstructured, with around 100 companies operating in it, most being very small and inadequately capitalized. However, the market will gradually stabilize on account of increasing trends of consolidation and regulatory developments.
