The economic outlook has worsened since our last Business Forecast Report, with our latest oil price and production figures having been revised down, and the global climate continuing to deteriorate. Interbank lending remains very tight, and private sector projects continue to be cancelled. However, we are relatively positive on Saudi Arabia compared with some of its neighbours: it will suffer less from the population shrinkage we expect for the UAE and Qatar, and strong domestic need for housing will keep its real estate sector from experiencing the same degree of correction. We are forecasting real GDP growth of 2.1% this year, and 2.8% in 2010, followed by a recovery to 3.5% in 2011-2012 and 4.2% in 2013.
Breaking down our GDP forecast by expenditure, the most positive areas in 2009 will be government spending (which we see rising by a real 5.0%) and gross fixed capital formation (positive 2.0% expansion). However, these will suffer from the tighter lending conditions that have been plaguing the interbank market. Although rates are down from the spike back in Q308, on the back of central bank easing and other liquidity measures, risk aversion is still very much in play, and private sector borrowers say that conditions remain very challenging.
That said, the government is determined to keep the economy going, and, like many other governments across the globe, is prepared to pay for it. Riyadh has said it plans to spend SAR450bn (US$120bn) on major projects such as roads, railways and new cities in the next five years. In real terms, therefore, the economy is set to grow, even if it feels like a recession for consumers and workers.
In the Middle East and North Africa, we profile 17 companies. These are AGF, AIG, Allianz, Aviva, AXA, Cardif, ERGO, Eureko, Fortis, Generali, Groupama, HSBC Insurance, Liberty Mutual, MAPFRE, RSA, UNIQA and Zurich Financial Services.
We also look at a number of the smaller local firms that are active in the region, particularly in Kuwait, Oman, Saudi Arabia and the UAE. For almost all the countries whose reports we are updating, we are also able to include actual data for calendar year 2007. This was not the case for our Q208 reports.
We estimate that, over the course of 2008, total premiums in Saudi Arabia rose by 24% to SAR10,557mn. Non-life premiums rose by 23% to SAR10,155mn while life premiums rose by 50% to SAR402mn.
Between now and the end of the forecast period, we estimate that annual non-life premiums will grow by SAR9,004mn, while annual life premiums should grow by SAR681mn.
Growth in non-life premiums should be driven by the general growth of nominal GDP plus a rise in nonlife penetration from the current estimated level of 0.56%, to 1.00%.
Growth in life premiums should be driven by the change in the overall population and a rise in life density from a current estimated US$3.59 to US$10.00 per capita.
BMI’s Insurance Business Environment Rating for Saudi Arabia is 52.1.
