DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/88fcff/life_insurance_in) has announced the addition of the "Life Insurance in Finland, Key Trends and Opportunities to 2017" report to their offering.
Life insurance was the largest segment in the Finnish insurance industry in 2012, accounting for 81.8% of the industry's gross written premium in 2012. Pure risk, capital-redemption and unit-linked policies will record considerable growth between 2012 and 2018, although the opposite will be the case with guaranteed-return policies due to subdued interest rates on government bonds. The solvency margin of life insurers was more than five times the required level in 2012.
