Life Insurance in Malaysia, Key Trends and Opportunities to 2016

Page 1

Life Insurance in Malaysia, Key Trends and Opportunities to 2016 Life insurance was the largest segment of the Malaysian insurance industry in 2011 with a market share of 59.3%. It is also considered as one of the most emerging and exciting life insurance markets in the Asia-Pacific region. The global financial crisis had minimal impact on the life insurance market in Malaysia during the review period. Driven by factors such as a disciplined attitude of individuals towards savings, rising consumer confidence and government initiatives on tax relief, the relatively underpenetrated Malaysian life insurance segment is expected to register healthy growth over the forecast period. The Malaysian government increased the limit for income tax deduction for life insurance with retirement benefits from MYR6,000 to MYR7,000 for individuals in 2010. This incentive is expected to support the development schemes of life insurers, with the country’s aging population being a key consideration.
