Revenue guidance

Category 3
  • GIC Re expects overall growth of about 15% for the year, driven mainly by the domestic market as international premiums are expected to decline or remain flat in the near term.
  • The company aims to grow its book reasonably over the next 2-3 years, including international markets upon potential rating upgrades.
  • Growth is supported by diversification within India across different classes such as health (especially retail health), motor, property, and agriculture.
  • Retail health reinsurance is a targeted growth area, with new treaties signed recently.
  • The company plans to avoid loss-making business and maintain profitability, with an expected combined ratio improvement to around 105%-106% in 2-3 years.
  • Regulatory changes like Risk-Based Capital (RBC) and IFRS accounting standards could create growth opportunities.
  • Competition may intensify globally, but India is expected to be shaped more by regulatory factors and stable pricing in the short term.
