Abstract

In 2019, thirty years had lapsed from the beginning of the transformation from the centrally planned to market economy in the Czech Republic. Although the transformation of the insurance industry started two years later, it seems to be appropriate after a certain period of time to consider the level of the Czech insurance market, its strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats. The aim of this article was to recapitulate the recent development of the insurance market in the Czech Republic (since 1991), to highlight its milestones and the main events that accompanied the development, based on selected indicators specifically used to describe the insurance industry. Since it was not possible to mention all the important facts that affected the Czech insurance market, the article focused in more detail on the development of the legal aspect of the Czech insurance market and the process of its transformation (using indicators of the share of the market leader and the number of insurance companies). The EU accession of the Czech Republic and its impact on the number of entities providing insurance services in our territory were not omitted either. Product milestones were represented by the transformation of the motor third party liability insurance (using indicators of the share of the market leader and the number of insurance companies pursuing this insurance), the phenomenon of the unit-linked insurance and tax benefits of the life insurance.

Abstract

This note summarizes the findings and conclusions of the review of the insurance sector in Mali. The review was conducted as part of the 2015 financial sector assessment program (FSAP) in Mali. The main objectives of the review are to assess the structure, performance, and outlook of the insurance sector with respect to the potential for the sector to develop; and to contribute to the overall long term growth and development of the economy and the well-being of the country's population. The insurance market in Mali falls short of its potential today; however, its outlook is promising. This technical note looks at two questions: what role does the insurance sector play in Mali today?, and how can it play a more significant role? It highlights the potential of micro insurance and agriculture insurance in particular, and concludes with a number of recommendations.

Abstract

Bangladesh has a comprehensive Disaster Management plan, but details on the implementation and sufficiency of funding should be clarified. Strengthening financial disclosure could encourage greater engagement from key local and international stakeholders. The country also offers great opportunities to increase the outreach of insurance to larger sections of the population, especially to those most vulnerable to the substantial exposure to natural hazards and especially flood. The micro-finance market is well developed and provides opportunities to expand the still very limited availability of micro-insurance propositions to the rural population. Index-based insurance programs supported by mobile payment systems have already been piloted and there is considerable scope for this to be expanded, especially when appropriately subsidized to address affordability issues. However, this will require further strengthening of the insurance market, in respect of the implementation of the Insurance Act 2010 and of consumer representation, which is underdeveloped but may contribute strongly to improve the public’s confidence and help the industry to develop successful propositions also for emerging customers.
