Dublin-based Research and Markets has announced the addition of “Bancassurance in the 21st Century: Global Opportunities to Maximize Revenues” to their offering.
R&M’s bulletin noted that “through a series of mergers, takeovers and joint ventures between banks and insurance companies, the past 20 years have seen the growth of bancassurance to become an increasingly dominant force in key financial services sectors across the globe: a trend that is set to continue.”
It concludes that as a consequence “opportunities for the industry to target new customer segments and develop new products are currently immense. Emerging markets, changing employment patterns, growing disposable incomes and longer retirement periods mean that consumers have increasingly complex insurance and financial requirements.”
Details of the contents of R&M’s analysis were given as follows:
