The insurance market in the region is expected to grow at a CAGR of around 25% during our forecast period (2010-2013) mainly due to the highly untapped market, rising awareness level, health consciousness and initiatives taken by governments of various countries in the region, says "Middle East Insurance Market Forecast to 2012".

Saudi Arabia will witness the highest CAGR of around 36%, followed by Bahrain and UAE during the forecast period.

Evaluation of Life and Non-life insurance segments has also been provided in the report. Non-life insurance segments like health, motor, marine, fire insurance have been thoroughly discussed. Islamic Insurance is another growing area in Middle East and the report covers takaful share in different countries as well. Key drivers of the Middle East insurance industry like low penetration, young educated population, and Government initiatives have been critically evaluated in the report.

The report provides extensive research and in-depth analysis of the insurance sector in the Middle East.
