Finaccord’s report titled Creditor Insurance in the Asia-Pacific Region offers updated and detailed insights into the market for creditor insurance, sometimes also referred to as payment protection insurance or loan-related insurance, in ten countries. Creditor insurance was worth around USD 9.07 billion in gross written premiums in the region in 2014, including coverage for life and permanent disability as well as the temporary disability and unemployment elements. However, the progress of individual creditor insurance markets has been variable in recent years with rapid growth in some territories offset by a lack of development in others, sometimes as a result of regulatory intervention. Countries whose creditor insurance markets are investigated for this study are China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, the Philippines, South Korea, Thailand and Vietnam. Drawing on the results of a survey of 655 lending institutions, the report analyses the provision of creditor insurance by lending institutions, variances in provision by underlying lending product, operating models for provision of creditor insurance, weighted provider share of partnerships and the potential for selling creditor cover through distribution channels other than the lending institutions themselves. The PartnerBASE™ dataset that accompanies the report details each of well over 500 creditor insurance distribution deals traced by Finaccord. Together, the report, PartnerBASE™ dataset and market data file will provide you with the definitive guide to current and future opportunities in creditor insurance in the Asia-Pacific region.
