ACORD Global Life Insurance Value Creation Study
By ACORD
June 2018
The global life insurance industry is notoriously idiosyncratic among not only insurance lines of business, but across all sectors in general. The ACORD Global Life Insurance Value Creation Study leveraged in-depth financial analysis, data-driven research, and interviews with industry leaders to answer three key questions:
- How have life insurers performed globally?
- What metrics correlate to shareholder returns?
- Which strategies and capabilities support high performance?
The study analyzed six years of data spanning 50 companies, 17 countries, over 20 lines of business, and 1/3 of global life NPW. By comparing multiple financial performance metrics and carrier attributes, we were able to highlight critical best-practice capabilities across the value chain.
