The Least Concentrated Markets of 2007: Ukraine, Russia and Turkey
In 2007, both immature and relatively developed non-life insurance markets - such as Poland, Croatia, the Czech Republic and the Baltic states - showed a high concentration, as set out in analytical report "TOP-Insurer. Insurance Markets and Insurance Groups in CEE and Former USSR", published by Russian Polis Information Group in September.
"Compared to the highly concentrated markets, Ukraine, Russia, Turkey, Bulgaria and Greece have a favorable standing," the experts of the group's analytical center believe. At the same time, the experts note that, for example, in Bulgaria or Romania, notwithstanding a relatively low level of concentration, there are less non-life insurers than in the Czech Republic or Poland.
TOP-Insurer is an analytical report providing a detailed analysis of the insurance industry of CEE and the former USSR - the region with almost half a billion people. Nearly 1800 companies from 30 countries formed the statistical framework for the research. The report deals with the official and complete information only.
TOP-Insurer has two analytical sections: the analysis of the region's national markets and the financial results of 50 major transnational groups in the region. Moreover, the report includes the lists of the TOP-300 major life insurers and TOP-500 major non-life insurers.
