Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/17/2012 -- During the review period, the Iranian reinsurance segment was dominated by Bimeh Markazi Iran (Central Insurance of Iran), the single state-regulated reinsurer which was established to regulate, expand and guide the overall insurance industry. Furthermore, the regulatory framework of the country, which made compulsory cession of the life, non-life and personal accident and health insurance segments, drove the growth of the reinsurance segment during the review period. Moreover, the growth of all three of the segments is expected to advance the growth of reinsurance over the forecast period.

Key Highlights

- Iran is situated in a high natural disaster-prone location. The country is prone to earthquakes with the occurrence of two earthquakes in 2010 and one in 2011.
