The overall performance of the Mexican insurance business has been profitable in the recent years and has maintained its position as the second largest insurance market in Latin America, in terms of gross premiums.

The insurance market of Mexico is divided into Life and Non-Life segments. There has been a very slight rise in the total annual premiums in local currency terms in 2008, due to the global economic slowdown and the resultant impact on domestic economy. In 2008, the market witnessed a decrease in the growth of non-life insurance premiums due to the present financial crises in the US, as well as declining motor sales in the country.

Argentina is regarded as the fourth largest market in Latin America, on account of the industry’s growth, profitability and per capita expenditure on insurance in this region. The insurance market of Argentina is characterized by its small size and fragmented structure, with the general (non-life) insurance segment holding a stronger position as compared to the life insurance segment. The significant growth of the non-life insurance segment is attributed to the continuous economic recovery and positive growth of the credit market. The automobiles industry is major contributor to the non-life segment, due to the increase in sales of vehicles and the resultant demand for compulsory third party motor and voluntary insurance in the country. Life insurance is mainly supported by the rise in demand for retirement and pension policies, as they are accompanied by tax advantages, while the non-life business mainly thrives on the back of labor-risk insurance plans. According to the market experts, growth of the non-life segment mainly comes from the increase in private demand, improvement in foreign trade, changes in investment habits, as well as an increase in domestic savings. The insurance density in Argentina has witnessed a continuous growth due to strong GDP growth and higher salaries, which have further added to the growth of this sector. The non-life insurance segment is characterized by its fragmented structure.
