Slide 2 2 General Insurance Sector Current Growth & Penetration 1988-2008 The insurance industry continues to show sluggish growth every year. The insurance penetration remains 0.7% of the GDP, which is one of the lowest in the world. Unlike the more developed markets, only B2B selling is prevalent which has become expensive and has begun to erode profits and reserves. Slide 3 3 Recent & Emerging Scenario Insurance Sector grew by only 6% in 2008. Profit margins will shrink further due to the impact of globalization and maturing markets. The market has witnessed introduction of new products like health, crop, livestock. New distribution channels such as Bancassurance, Websales & Telesales have emerged.

Major emphasis has been on compliance. However, more proactive Regulators have demonstrated a strategic balance between market development & regulation. Broad financial indicators are defined, but a specific framework for an Early warning system is not available. There are no information standards for the Industry for Risk appraisal, forecasting & sharing of critical information. Slide 15 15 Role of the Regulator To increase our involvement due to the failure of the Free Market model. To act not only as a Regulator but mainly as a Facilitator. Prevent frauds & abuses from becoming systemic so that they do not consume the market. To formulate policies and development strategies which increase the Insurance penetration in Pakistan. Encourage healthy competition and implement International best practices. Slide 16 16 Strategic Roadmap Organize internally Automate our processes Develop more positive relations with the Insurance Industry. Develop contacts & cooperation with International Regulatory Organizations. Respond in Real Time to emergency cases with the help of Early Warning tools. Formulate a data sharing mechanism for actuarial risk calculation & development of Rating Models. 2009
