China Insurance Sector Report 2018 4th Quarter

With insurance companies going on with their product restructure during Q3 2018, China's insurance industry retained its upward trend. The quarter saw insurance premiums increase solidly by 13.3% y/y to RMB 829.9bn. In January-September, premiums totalled RMB 3.1tn, unchanged y/y. Considering that the sector experienced its first quarterly premium contraction since 2011 during Q1 due to stricter regulatory control, the recovery in insurance premiums indicates that the industry has found a way to survive the tightening financial environment. The main driver of the industry rebound was the human insurance segment, which registered a 16% y/y increase to RMB 573.1bn in Q3 2018, accounting for 69.1% of total industry income.
