China’s Top Ten Insurance Companies

Insurance Companies: Over the past decade, China’s insurance market has experienced exponential expansion; annual life-insurance premiums increased from $10 billion in 1999 to $300 billion by 2013.

China has eased entry barriers for foreign insurers to set up joint-venture insurance firms in China, while domestic insurers strengthened themselves through initial public offerings and other market developments – two major supply-side trends which, combined with rising demand, have contributed significantly to industry expansion.
