0.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Gross written premiums across the eight countries amounted to around EUR 24.24 billion in 2011... 

... within which mortgage-related policies made up around EUR 17.48 billion... 

... and cover for temporary incapacity and unemployment approximately EUR 6.21 billion 

The leading eight groups are likely to account for over a half of the total regional market 

Partnerships with major lending institutions make CNP and Aviva among the region’s leaders... 

... albeit BNP Paribas Cardif holds many more relationships, spread across all countries in the region 

An analysis focused on the non-life elements of creditor insurance would product different results

2.0 REGIONAL OVERVIEW

Introduction 

Market analysis – consumer lending 

Balances outstanding reached EUR 5.35 trillion across the eight countries in 2010 

Apart from in Ireland, mortgage customers have not felt the need to reduce the size of their borrowings 

Having peaked in 2008, consumer non-mortgage lending balances have fallen back in four countries 

Belgium’s total consumer lending market grew most rapidly from 2006 to 2010 

By a wide margin, total consumer lending balances per capita are highest in the Netherlands... 

… primarily as a result of its substantial residential mortgage market 

Consumer non-mortgage lending balances per capita have tended to stall or decline since 2008 

Non-mortgage credit decreases as a proportion of total consumer lending in all but two countries 

The number of credit and other pay later cards issued has fallen by almost 10% since 2008... 

… with the UK having shrunk most rapidly 

In per capita terms, France and the UK remain the most saturated markets in spite of sharp falls 

Creditor insurance provision rates, operating models and partnerships 

Creditor insurance linked to mortgages 

In most countries, over 90% of mortgage lenders researched have a scheme for creditor insurance 

Use of a single, external underwriter constitutes the most regularly used operating model... 

... in all countries other than Belgium, the Netherlands and Portugal where captives are preferred 

When analysed on a weighted basis, the use of captive and joint venture underwriters is more prominent 

When analysed at a group level, the leading eight provider groups account for over a half of this market... 

... with CNP likely to be the regional leader thanks to partnerships with a number of major French banks...

... and with Aviva also strong as a result of a presence in six of the eight countries analysed

Creditor insurance linked to consumer finance 

Loan payment protection insurance is quite commonly available in every country apart from the UK 

Captive and joint venture underwriters are slightly less prevalent in loan payment protection insurance... 

... because the consumer finance market is populated by a larger number of small lending institutions... 

... although they are still present in all countries other than Ireland and the UK 

The leading four groups in creditor insurance linked to consumer finance all originate from France 

BNP Paribas Cardif emerges as the leading group thanks to its range of captive and non-captive deals 

Creditor insurance linked to credit cards 

Credit card payment protection insurance is most widespread in France and Portugal 

On an unweighted basis, captive underwriters are utilised most frequently in three countries... 

... although these are joined by Spain when results are viewed on a weighted basis 

For credit card payment protection insurance, groups owned by French banks are even more dominant 

Market analysis – creditor insurance 

The total market value is predicted to advance to EUR 27.51 billion in gross written premiums by 2015 

Modest growth is predicted for the life insurance elements of creditor insurance... 

... with a partial recovery also forecast for the value of cover for temporary incapacity and unemployment 

In 2011, France accounted for over 30% of mortgage-related gross written premiums... 

... and its market, along with that of Portugal, is large relative to its underlying mortgage market 

The collapse of the UK’s loan payment protection market has caused a sharp fall in the regional total 

In relative terms, policies linked to consumer loans seem least popular in Ireland and the UK 

Shrinkage in the UK also weighs on the region’s market for credit card payment protection insurance... 

... albeit six out of eight markets are expected to achieve growth to one extent or another by 2015 

 

3.0 BELGIUM

Banks and other lending institutions covered 

Introduction to the banking sector 

Structurally, Belgium’s banking and insurance sectors are very closely linked 

Dexia’s banking and insurance operations were nationalised in October 2011 

Consumer lending market size and growth 

Mortgage lending 

Mortgage lending balances rose at a consistently strong rate between 2006 and 2010 

Non-mortgage lending 

Non-mortgage lending balances remained steady between 2008 and 2010 

Credit and other pay later cards 

In 2010, there were 0.41 credit and other pay later cards per capita in Belgium 

Creditor insurance provision rates, operating models and partnerships 

Creditor insurance linked to mortgages 

Captive and joint venture insurers account for more than half of all partnerships in this area… 

…giving providers such as AG insurance and ING a substantial share of the market 

Several smaller mortgage lending institutions also possess captive insurance underwriters 

Even the most prominent external underwriter holds less than 5% of weighted partnerships 

Creditor insurance linked to consumer finance 

Over three quarters of non-mortgage credit providers promote creditor insurance 

By weighted share of partnerships, Cardif is ranked second in this field in Belgium... 

... as a result of its relationships with a significant proportion of specialised lenders 

In total, over 20 underwriters compete for mandates in loan payment protection insurance 

Creditor insurance linked to credit cards 

Card-related creditor insurance is available from a half of Belgian credit card issuers investigated 

The majority of leading underwriters have just one partnership in this area… 

…whereas Cardif underwrites policies for both Fimaser and Buy Way Personal Finance 

Creditor insurance risk coverage 

Many policies in Belgium are only designed to provide cover in the event of death 

Alternative distribution channels 

Borrowers can also choose to acquire creditor insurance directly from insurers or through brokers 

Creditor insurance market size, growth and forecast 

Growth in creditor insurance premiums is forecast to moderate slightly between 2011 and 2015 

 

4.0 FRANCE

Banks and other lending institutions covered 

Introduction to the banking sector 

Consumer lending market size and growth

Mortgage lending 

Mortgage lending balances rose by over EUR 60 billion in 2010 alone... 

Non-mortgage lending 

... although the non-mortgage lending market levelled off 

Credit and other pay later cards 

French issuers cancelled a very large number of under-performing accounts during 2010 

Creditor insurance linked to mortgages 

One way or another, mortgage lenders oblige their borrowers to take out related creditor insurance 

CNP Assurances is likely to account for around one third of this market... 

... with ACM (Assurances Crédit Mutuel) another significant competitor 

Both Crédit Agricole and Société Générale use a combination of captive and external partners 

AXA is the second most prominent insurer that is active primarily on a non-captive basis 

Insurance providers outside of the top eight likely to be limited to a very small market share

Creditor insurance linked to consumer finance 

The use of captive insurers is also widespread for loan payment protection insurance 

Distribution partnerships for this type of cover typically mirror those of mortgage-related policies… 

…although La Banque Postale uses a separate underwriter for its consumer finance proposition... 

…and the large number of specialist consumer credit providers results in a more diverse market 

In total, approaching 30 legally distinct underwriting entities are active in this arena 

Creditor insurance linked to credit cards 

Card-related creditor insurance is widely available from French credit card issuers 

In this field, the apparent leader by weighted share of partnerships is different... 

...and other differences are visible further down the scale 

Only three issuers of credit cards were found to have no apparent arrangement in this sector 

Creditor insurance risk coverage 

Cover against death and permanent disability is universal across all three types of creditor policy 

Alternative distribution channels 

2010’s ‘Loi Lagarde’ has paved the way for greater use of alternative distribution channels in France... 

... including direct and agency sales by insurance underwriters... 

... and dedicated online aggregators such as assurance-emprunteur.com 

Cardif has finalised a partnership with SeLoger.com, an online real estate company 

APRIL launched an innovative new creditor insurance proposition in June 2011 

CBP is another prominent competitor in this arena, with particular expertise in ‘non-standard’ risks 

Creditor insurance market size, growth and forecast 

Mortgage-related policies will continue as the engine for growth in French creditor insurance 

 

5.0 IRELAND

Banks and other lending institutions covered 

Introduction to the banking sector 

Six major Irish banks have been reduced to three by the financial crisis... 

... with foreign-owned banks making up the field 

The Irish League of Credit Unions has the largest customer base, but this is spread across 400 entities 

The Central Bank of Ireland has launched an investigation into mis-selling of creditor insurance 

Consumer lending market size and growth 

Mortgage lending 

Mortgage lending balances fell by almost a quarter in value between their high point in 2007 and 2010... 

Non-mortgage lending 

... with non-mortgage lending also having lost ground in recent years 

Credit and other pay later cards 

Ireland’s market for credit and other pay later cards peaked in 2008 before slipping back in 2009 and 2010 

Creditor insurance provision rates, operating models and partnerships 

Creditor insurance linked to mortgages 

Hybrid operating models predominate, as life insurance providers differ from short-term insurance providers 

One life insurer and two short-term insurers share the largest partnerships between them 

Creditor insurance linked to consumer finance 

Creditor insurance for consumer finance is usually offered through one external underwriter 

Assurant established its relationship with the Irish League of Credit Unions in 2007 

Creditor insurance linked to credit cards 

Only two credit card providers offer payment protection insurance 

Creditor insurance risk coverage 

Credit card policies carried the most comprehensive insurance 

Alternative distribution channels 

Direct underwriters and intermediaries often sell mortgage term life cover, but payment protection is rarer 

Creditor insurance market size, growth and forecast 

Irish creditor insurance contracted between 2007 and 2011 and is forecast to continue shrinking 

 

6.0 ITALY

Banks and other lending institutions covered 

Introduction to the banking sector 

Four, or arguably five, retail banking groups lay claim to a genuinely nationwide network… 

… although these are being challenged by an array of ambitious regional competitors… 

… including the banche di credito cooperative and casse Raiffeisen… 

… as well as several insurer-owned banks and banks falling under foreign ownership 

Italy also plays host to a considerable number of specialised lending institutions 

Italy’s banking groups typically encapsulate a number of local or regional banking brands 

Consumer lending market size and growth 

Mortgage lending 

Italy’s residential mortgage market continues to grow although balances per capita remain low 

Non-mortgage lending 

The compound annual growth rate for non-mortgage balances is slightly higher than that for mortgages 

Credit and other pay later cards 

Italy’s market for credit and other pay later cards has stagnated in recent years 

Creditor insurance provision rates, operating models and partnerships 

Creditor insurance linked to mortgages 

Several lending institutions utilise hybrid operating models incorporating different types of underwriter...

... including the UniCredit grouping, which runs joint ventures with three separate partners...

... and UBI Banca, which works with underwriters co-owned by both Aviva and Cattolica 

Other smaller captive and joint venture underwriters are also in evidence... 

... as are over 20 external providers of mortgage-related creditor insurance with at least one relationship 

Assimoco co-operates in this area with as many as 14 of the lending institutions investigated 

Unipol has owned over 60% of the equity capital of Arca since June 2010 

Creditor insurance linked to consumer finance 

Virtually all lending institutions that could offer this type of creditor insurance actually do so in practice 

By weighted share of partnerships, Cardif emerges as the second-ranked competitor 

Among other specialist underwriters, ALICO and CACI are also relatively prominent

As in several other countries, Banque PSA Finance makes use of a captive underwriter in this field 

The competition among non-captives is as fragmented and intense as it is for mortgage-related cover 

Lending institutions with no arrangement in this area are all comparatively minor entities 

Creditor insurance linked to credit cards 

Small and medium-sized banks tend not to have schemes for credit card payment protection insurance... 

... because, typically, they are distributors rather than original issuers of credit cards 

Nevertheless, 20 programs were identified among more significant competitors in the credit card sector 

Creditor insurance risk coverage 

Virtually all policies now available in Italy offer comprehensive risk coverage 

Alternative distribution channels 

Credit intermediaries and estate agency chains are also used for selling creditor insurance 

Creditor insurance market size, growth and forecast 

All forms of creditor insurance are forecast to continue growing between 2011 and 2015 

 

7.0 NETHERLANDS

Introduction to the banking sector

The Dutch state exerts a greater influence on the retail banking sector than foreign institutions... 

…and is likely to continue to do so until 2014 at least 

ING has reshaped itself greatly in recent years 

Several lending institutions have closed to new business 

Consumer lending market size and growth 

Mortgage lending 

In terms of balances per capita, the Dutch mortgage market is one of the most developed in Europe... 

Non-mortgage lending 

... although the non-mortgage lending sector is modest by comparison 

Credit and other pay later cards 

The Dutch market for credit and other pay later cards has contracted since 2006 

Creditor insurance linked to mortgages 

By weighted share of partnerships, the Dutch market appears highly concentrated... 

…and largely controlled by captive or joint venture underwriters owned by the leading banks 

Creditor insurance linked to consumer finance 

Many partnerships for this form of creditor insurance are the same as those for mortgage-related policies... 

Creditor insurance linked to credit cards 

Only two underwriters were found to be active in credit card payment protection insurance... 

…with a limited pool of card issuers available to them to cultivate 

Creditor insurance risk coverage 

Virtually all policies tied to consumer finance include cover for temporary incapacity and unemployment 

Alternative distribution channels 

The Nationale Hypotheek Garantie is important in the context of mortgage-related insurance 

Mortgage and insurance brokers comprise another significant independent distribution channel 

Creditor insurance market size, growth and forecast 

Creditor insurance in the Netherlands is largely dominated by mortgage-related cover 

 

8.0 PORTUGAL

Banks and other lending institutions covered

Introduction to the banking sector 

Consumer lending market size and growth 

Mortgage lending 

In spite of economic uncertainties, Portuguese mortgage balances continue to increase 

Non-mortgage lending 

Non-mortgage lending to consumers, on the other hand, slipped back slightly in 2010 

Credit and other pay later cards 

Although they peaked in 2008, credit cards issued in 2010 were still over 20% higher in 2010 than in 2006 

Creditor insurance provision rates, operating models and partnerships 

Creditor insurance linked to mortgages 

A wide range of operating models is used to source mortgage-related creditor insurance in Portugal 

The majority of underwriters are external in this market 

No provider of mortgage-related creditor insurance possesses more than two distribution partnerships 

Crédit Agricole entered into its bancassurance joint venture with Banco Espírito Santo in 2006 

The final cost to CNP of its deal with Barclays will play out over 12 years following its commencement 

Creditor insurance linked to consumer finance 

Many partnerships for this form of creditor insurance are the same as those for mortgage-related policies... 

... although there are also at least 15 distribution relationships specific to consumer finance products 

Creditor insurance linked to credit cards 

Most credit card issuers have an arrangement in place for creditor insurance of one sort or another 

There are some variations in risk coverage and insurers used relative to other types of creditor policy 

Creditor insurance risk coverage 

Policies linked to consumer finance commonly include cover for temporary incapacity and unemployment 

Alternative distribution channels 

Few alternative distribution channels exist for selling creditor insurance in Portugal 

Creditor insurance market size, growth and forecast 

Portugal’s creditor insurance market seems close to maturity 

 

9.0 SPAIN

Introduction to the banking sector 

The end of the decade sees a raft of mergers amid general economic uncertainty… 

…with more mergers and state take-overs in the forecast 

Consumer lending market size and growth 

Mortgage lending 

Predictably, growth in Spanish mortgage lending balances has stalled since 2008...

Non-mortgage lending 

... with non-mortgage lending balances having actually declined by over 7% 

Credit and other pay later cards 

The Spanish credit card market declined slightly in both 2009 and 2010 having peaked in 2008 

Creditor insurance provision rates, operating models and partnerships 

Creditor insurance linked to mortgages 

A broad variety of operating models are reported for mortgage-related creditor insurance in Spain 

Large captive underwriters leverage high potential client numbers into the highest weighted share... 

…while a very large number of insurers hold deals among the smaller mortgage lending institutions 

Joint ventures have been popular... 

…although Spain’s evolving banking market means that the future of many of these is uncertain 

Creditor insurance linked to consumer finance 

Many partnerships for this form of creditor insurance replicate those for mortgage-related policies... 

... although Cardif is ranked first in this field by weighted share of partnerships 

Once again, numerous smaller captive and joint venture underwriters are in evidence 

Creditor insurance linked to credit cards 

Schemes for credit card payment protection insurance are comparatively few in number... 

…with the potential reduced somewhat by free protection-related insurance packaged with cards 

Creditor insurance risk coverage 

Policies linked to consumer finance commonly include cover for temporary incapacity and unemployment 

Alternative distribution channels 

Several major insurers offer mortgage-related creditor insurance direct to consumers 

Creditor insurance market size, growth and forecast 

Spain’s market for creditor insurance is unlikely to deliver more than weak growth from 2011 to 2015 

 

10.0 UNITED KINGDOM

Introduction to the banking sector 

The crisis of 2007 onwards forced many institutions to close, merge or be nationalised... 

... with Santander as the only bank to emerge much stronger from the turmoil... 

... while the Nationwide and the Yorkshire rescued several building societies in trouble 

New entrants are appearing, with 700 branches scheduled to change hands at the time of publication

Consumer lending market size and growth 

Mortgage lending 

Mortgage lending balances per capita reached their highest point in 2008... 

Non-mortgage lending 

... with a similar assertion applying in the case of non-mortgage consumer lending balances 

Credit and other pay later cards 

The number of credit cards issued in the UK has been in retreat since 2005 

Creditor insurance provision rates, operating models and partnerships 

Creditor insurance linked to mortgages 

External underwriters, captive underwriters and captive brokers dominate distribution 

Aviva is the leading external provider for mortgage term life insurance... 

...while Scottish Widows is the leading captive underwriter 

Friends Life combines the partnerships formed by AXA and Friends Provident 

15 banks and building societies use financial advisers for mortgage term life insurance... 

... but only two of these distribute mortgage payment protection insurance 

Creditor insurance linked to consumer finance 

Only a handful of lending institutions still offer creditor insurance related to consumer finance... 

... albeit some have introduced short-term income protection cover as a substitute product 

Jubilee was the leading provider in this fast-shrinking market 

... followed by Pinnacle Insurance 

Creditor insurance linked to credit cards 

Only four schemes for credit card payment protection insurance are still active 

Creditor insurance risk coverage 

Mortgage-related creditor insurance propositions are focused mainly on cover for death and critical illness 

Alternative distribution channels 

Mortgage brokers and financial advisers are major distributors of mortgage term life insurance... 

... while online aggregators and brokers sell ‘accident, sickness and unemployment’ cover 

Towergate’s British Insurance has a long-established and fairly high profile presence in this area... 

... with other competitors including Ant Insurance, Best Insurance, i:protect and Paymentcare 

Creditor insurance market size, growth and forecast 

The market for classic payment protection insurance has collapsed since 2007 

Citizens Advice filed its original ‘super-complaint’ as long ago as September 2005... 

... on the basis of at least five concerns 

Lending institutions began to withdraw from the payment protection market from 2007 onwards... 

... and have made provisions for compensation in excess of the GBP 4.5 billion estimated by the FSA 

New regulations for payment protection insurance are being introduced... 

... with the result that three outcomes look likely for this product in the UK
