Executive Summary

Despite the notable lack of progress in political and democratic reforms, Kazakhstan’s relative stability and booming energy sector, continue to mark it as an ongoing prospect for cross border insurers. Of particular interest will be the expected absolute growth in non-life premiums, relative to other countries in the region, over the next five years. This should be quite large, and is an outcome which does not require spectacular GDP growth or a massive rise in the non-life penetration.

Such growth is off a very low base however. The weaknesses of the Kazakh insurance sector are clear and in particular, the almost non-existent life insurance segment, which accounts for just 4.1% of total premiums. This is compounded by the apparent lack of faith the Kazakhs have for making long-term savings through local financial institutions. The low level of assets of accumulative pension funds and their apparent growth of virtually zero highlight this.

Kazakhstan’s insurance sector should be noted as varying from those of other nations in the region and globally on a number of counts, a point highlighted by the relative unimportance of Compulsory Third Party Motor Liability insurance, which is normally the first line to develop in an emerging insurance market. In the non-life segment — which is dominated by a small number of local firms which are nonetheless tiny by international standards — property insurance accounts for the overwhelming majority of premiums.

Multi-national insurers are thin on the ground in Kazakhstan, which is evidence that the business environment and the regulatory regime represent a significant barrier to entry. This is in contrast to the Ukraine, another former soviet state, or the Baltic States. A case in point is the Global giant AIG ERGO and the major Austrian firms — are absent. So too are the enormous insurers that are based in the Asia Pacific region countries which are, over the long-term, potential buyers of Kazakh energy (and especially China).

It appears likely to remain the case that most of the larger players in Kazakhstan will continue doing business with the energy sector and, in some cases, remain in effect captive insurers. A lot of the risk in this market is being laid off with reinsurers. Some of the smallest Kazakh firms may face problems but, collectively, their share of non-life premiums is small.
