Synopsis
The report provides in depth market analysis, information and insights into the South Korean
reinsurance market, including:
•The South Korean reinsurance market’s growth prospects by reinsurance categories
•The South Korean reinsurance market’s growth prospects by reinsurance ceded from direct
insurance segments
•The competitive landscape in the South Korean reinsurance market
The absence of any large natural disasters in South Korea meant no major losses were recorded
in the insurance industry during the review period. The premium retained by insurers increased,
resulting in high competition over reinsurance premium rates. As a result, the South Korean
reinsurance segment did not register a steep growth in premium rates, especially when compared
to other developed countries such as Japan and the US. A recovering economy means South
Korea's reinsurance segment is expected to record growth similar to that expected in the rest of
the Asia-Pacific region.
