Insurance corporation statistics

Insurance corporations are financial intermediaries which offer direct insurance or reinsurance services, providing financial protection against hazards. Under an insurance policy, the insurance corporation agrees to compensate the policyholder for losses caused by a pre-defined event against a fee, or “premium”.

The ECB collects statistical data on the balance sheets and other financial information of insurance corporations to analyse the financial system and household wealth. This is important because insurance corporations and insurance policies play a key role in financial markets and are a cornerstone of financial security for many European households.

This dataset combines data on insurance corporations in euro area countries in one harmonised set of statistics.

Data on insurance corporations are divided into three sections: (1) balance sheet (assets and liabilities), (2) premiums, claims and acquisition expenses, and (3) large insurance groups.
