One of its findings refers to a slight increase or a rather stagnation of the insurers’ turnover on the short-term. On the medium term, the report is more optimistic for individual insurance companies than for corporate enterprises.

Falling oil prices, a strong dollar, a slight rise in the interest rates, along with the concerns raised by the economic growth in emerging countries have disturbed financial institutions, banks and Middle East insurers.
