This study is about the distribution of three types of creditor insurance products through banks and other lending institutions. The research is delivered as an Excel workbook containing an interactive data dashboard and market data tables. The file also contains a PartnerBASE, which includes the full list of banks, the insurance products they offer consumers, the operating models used for this and the insurer partners that they work with.
Why is this research needed?
Bancassurance is a significant distribution channel for many countries, but it can be hard to identify specific opportunities. Top-down, insurers need to know the size of the underlying insurance market and the share of it distributed through banks in order to gauge the potential opportunity. Bottom-up, they need to know which are the main banks and other lending institutions in a country, the size of their customer base, if they already offer insurance products and if so, who their current partner is.
This research addresses all of these questions, which makes it a key resource in planning and executing a bancassurance distribution strategy.
