Marktanalyse - 'Bancassurance in Italy: Life, Non-Life and Creditor Insurance'

Finaccord’s report titled Bancassurance in Italy: Life, Non-Life and Creditor Insurance is about the distribution of insurance products through banks and other lending institutions in Italy. Types of insurance considered are: investment-related life insurance and retirement savings; risk life insurance, critical illness insurance and income protection insurance; accident insurance, medical expenses insurance and health / hospital cash plans; personal motor insurance and household insurance; and creditor insurance for mortgages, consumer finance and credit cards.

Based on a survey of 120 organisations, it identifies 748 bancassurance distribution initiatives across these types of insurance, and highlights the operating models and product providers used in the vast majority of cases. Moreover, it analyses these bancassurance agreements in terms of ‘weighted partnerships’ which take into account the size of the retail customer base of the banking institutions distributing these policies, thereby differentiating between the most important relationships and those that are comparatively minor.

In addition, with the exception of creditor insurance, for which historic, current and forecast market size data is provided for 2007, 2011 and 2015, the report also sizes the market for the various types of insurance investigated in terms of gross written premiums between 2006 and 2010, provides a general introduction to the banking sector, comments upon the general influence of the bank distribution channel for these types of insurance, and presents available data for key bancassurance underwriters, including captives, joint ventures and other dedicated bancassurance underwriters.

You may be able to use this report and the PartnerBASE™ dataset that accompanies it in one or more of the following ways:

- gain access to a source of information that provides a comprehensive overview of the provision of a range of personal insurance products by a majority of significant banking entities in Italy;

- identify partnership opportunities for these types of insurance that may arise either because a banking institution is not currently active or because there is scope for replacing an existing initiative;

- understand which underwriters and other product providers have been successful in establishing distribution relationships with the most important banking entities in Italy;

- assess the background to the most significant bancassurance deals, differentiating between those that originate from long-term or strategic objectives and those that are more transient;

- appreciate the magnitude of the opportunity to sell different types of life, non-life and creditor insurance through banks and other lending institutions in Italy.
