World life reinsurance gross premium revenue may have fallen in 2009, but world life reinsurance net premium revenue may have increased.
The International Association of Insurance Supervisors (IAIS), Basel, Switzerland, has published world life reinsurance market statistics in a year-end review of the reinsurance market.
The reinsurers that participated in an IAIS survey said their gross life reinsurance premiums fell to $52 billion in 2009, down 9% from the 2008 total.
