UPDATED: World insurance in 2007: emerging markets leading the way
According to the latest Swiss Re sigma study, world insurance premium income grew 3.3% in real terms in 2007, reaching USD 4 061bn. This growth was primarily driven by the life business in industrialised and emerging markets and to a lesser extent by the non-life business in the emerging markets.
UPDATE: The statistical appendix updates premium volumes from the world insurance sigma published earlier this year.
