Synopsis
The Portuguese non-life insurance segment accounted for the second largest segment of the industry's gross written premium in 2013. The economic turmoil after the global financial and sovereign debt crisis effected the segment's growth during the review period (2009-2013). The segment's gross written premium declined at a review-period compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of -0.4%.
Vehicle sales decreased drastically during the review period due to a decline in national disposable income. Property sales also fell, leading to the overall decline of the non-life insurance segment. However, the three-year bailout received from the IMF, the European Central Bank and the European Commission (EC) ended in May 2014, and is expected to revive the economy. Therefore, the non-life gross written premium is expected to grow at a forecast period (2013-2018) CAGR of 1.3%.
