Malaysia Insurance Report Q4 2015 - New Market Report

Long open to foreign majors, both the life and the non-life segments of Malaysia's insurance sector are substantial and sophisticated. Growth in the life segment should be driven by growth in the number of potential customers, as well as innovation in terms of product development and distribution. Growth in the non-life segment will be driven mainly by the overall expansion of the economy. Malaysia remains one of the most important markets for takaful - Sharia-compliant insurance - globally. However, takaful is growing less rapidly than the sector as a whole and accounts for about one fifth of premiums written in each of the two main segments. The Asean Economic Community (AEC) should accelerate the process of consolidation in the fragmented non-life segment, but is unlikely to result in other major changes.

In global terms, Malaysia could be considered as a medium sized national market for insurance, in which both major segments should grow at mid-single digit growth rates over the forecast period (i.e. to 2019) and, indeed for sometime afterwards.
