Global recession is not likely to rock the Indian insurance industry in a big way; therefore, there is nothing to panic about, says a Senior Research Analyst at RNCOS. However, most of the life insurance players are expecting their new business premium collection to ease down in the remaining financial year.
Citing reason for the moderation in premium collection, analyst stated that consumer sentiments are affecting the insurance industry because most of the prospective customers are putting their buying plans on hold. However, buying insurance products is a long-term investment and the ongoing crisis is not going to impact the returns on the assets. Low consumer sentiments are signaling just a temporary phase and likely to continue for another six to nine months, and thus, things will be different by this time next year.
Moreover, the Indian insurance market has joined the league of the fastest growing insurance markets in the Asian region, with the total insurance premium projected to grow at a CAGR of more than 50% between 2008-09 and 2010-11.
A new research report - “Booming Insurance Market in India (2008-2011)” from RNCOS - also says that the Indian insurance industry will show upward trend in future as it has displayed in the last few years owing to large population and vast untapped market.
After analyzing the growth potential of the Indian insurance market, the report says that many foreign investors have shown interest in the industry because the markets in most of the developed countries have reached saturation. Thus, foreign players have turned their attention to the emerging economies, and India is more lucrative as compared to other emerging economies, with more favorable environment for insurance expansion as the country has low insurance penetration.
In addition, “Booming Insurance Market in India (2008-2011)” contains exhaustive information along with statistical data on various segments of the industry that will help clients to analyze the leading-edge opportunity critical for the success of the industry. The report also includes forecast to give an idea to clients in which direction the industry is likely to move.

|
|
|
RNCOS, a leading market research firm, said in its new report “Bulgaria Banking Sector Analysis”, with favorable consumer behavior and bankers’ aggressive campaigning to attract capital, deposits in Bulgarian banks will continue growing at accelerated pace in coming years.
Earlier, when access to credit in international markets was easy and cheap, Bulgarian banks had little incentive to go out of their way to pursue aggressive campaigns to build their deposit bases domestically. But as the unrelenting financial crisis continues to squeeze out available re-financing opportunities, lenders have increasingly started turning to customers to attract fresh capital from deposits, confirming what some bankers had forecasted at the start of 2008.
According to an analyst at RNCOS, “Banks are offering annual interest rates of over 9% on six-month deposits in Leva, rates that were unthinkable a year ago, and that started being offered on two- and three-year term deposits just few months back. Interest rates on deposits denominated in Euro are also reaching a record high, though around two percentage points lower on average than on deposits in Bulgarian currency.”
Also, despite of the financial crisis, bank deposits remain the preferred investment instrument for Bulgarians. Bank deposits accounted for 65.2% of the 33.5 Billion Leva in financial wealth accumulated by Bulgarians, rising by 28% over the previous 12 months (December 2007 to November 2008).
“Bulgaria Banking Sector Analysis” provides thorough information on the Bulgarian banking industry and evaluates product quality and the services it offers. It also helps clients to identify the opportunities vital for the success of the banking industry in the country. It substantiates the in-depth analysis with statistical information on the banking industry so that investors, financial service providers and global banking players to understand the market.

Indonesian Islamic Banking Gaining from Financial Crisis
|
|
|
According to a recent research report “Indonesian Islamic Banking Outlook to 2013” by RNCOS, a leading research firm, with low penetration and growing interest of conventional banks into Sharia-compliant banking services (Islamic banking), the Islamic banking industry (in terms of assets) in Indonesia would continue to grow at a CAGR of over 50% between 2009 and 2012.
As per the research, Islamic banking in Indonesia is at its early stages of developments. It still makes up just about 2% of conventional banking system in the country. However, Bank of Indonesia (central bank) has set a target to push it to 5% by 2010 end. Thus, the country provides ample opportunities for new entrants in the system. Recently, two more conventional banks have converted into Islamic banks, BRI Syariah and Bukopin Syariah. Further, the industry expects at least five more by 2009 end - Panin-Hafra, BCA-UIC, Victoria, Maybank Indonesia and BNI Syariah.
The report also noted that the financial crisis has had no negative impact on the development of Sharia banking in the country. While the conventional financial system is reeling under the pressure of global financial crisis, the Sharia banking industry of Indonesia is benefitting from it and expects to continue its fast-paced growth in the years to come. This optimistic view is based on its very nature (avoid involvement of interest rates), and a healthy growth in lending in the recent months despite financial crisis.
“Indonesian Islamic Banking Outlook to 2013” provides a comprehensive research and prudent analysis on the Islamic banking in Indonesia. This extensive research will help the clients to identify the market trends and evaluate the leading-edge opportunities critical to the success of the Islamic banking market in the country. This study gives an overview on the various factors driving the banking industry, together with the forces that are blocking the growth of the industry.
This research supplements the past and current information on the Indonesia Islamic banking market with forecast on various important industry aspects, including Muslim population, disposable income, Sharia financing and deposits.
