STATISTICS: POLAND, FY2019: The largest CEE market reported positive rates and almost EUR 15 billion in aggregate GWP
The largest CEE insurance market reported positive dynamic in terms of premiums, according to the year-end figures from the Polish Financial Supervision Authority (KNF).

Thus, the Polish insurers' aggregate GWP was up by 2.67% y-o-y to PLN 63.83 billion (~EUR 14.98 billion) at the end of 2019, as the most recent financial indicators KNF showed.

Official figures also revealed that the amount of paid claims/indemnities during the period was PLN 40.86 billion (~EUR 9.59 billion), representing a decrease of almost 2% y-o-y.

The non-life insurance segment accounted for PLN 42.56 billion of the total GWP or 5.19% more y-o-y - except MTPL LoB (-1.69% y-o-y) all the main non-life subclasses reporting positive rates; the life-insurance companies contributed the remaining PLN 21.26 billion, which was almost half a million PLN less as compared with year-end 2018 - due the 14.5% decrease in GWP reported by Unit-linked products.

The local insurer PZU Zyce was the largest life insurer (40.35% market share), followed by AVIVA TUnZ (9.10% market share), and NN (7.22%). PZU was the biggest non-life insurer - market share of 30.63%, followed by ERGO HESTIA at 14.98% and WARTA, 14.17%.
