Non-life insurers; return on investments 2000-2015

This table shows the return on non-life insurers’ investments, broken down by type of investment. Non-life insurers compensate for damage suffered by insured persons in exchange for an annual premium. Non-life insurers are covered by the guidelines of the Dutch Insurance Supervision Act (WTV 1993). The introduction of the Health Insurance Act in 2006 led to an expansion of the industry of Accidents and Disease with the former sickness funds. The basic insurance provided by the health insurers is seen as a social insurance. The basic insurance is therefore taken from non-life insurance. The source for this statistics is the supervisory reporting of insurers to De Nederlandsche Bank. This report has changed significantly as of 2007. In this table, the average amount invested is determined as the average of initial and final balance sheet value from 2007. Before that, this was in the source. Some of the differences between the 2006 and 2007 figures are the character of a series break. Data available from 2000 to 2015 Status of the figures: The figures are final. Changes as of 8 December 2017: None, this table has been discontinued. When are new figures coming? No longer applicable. In the context of the strategic cooperation between CBS and DNB, a new division of tasks has been agreed. Insurance companies and pension funds are explicitly covered by DNB’s area of activity. The publication of tables by CBS with regard to Insurers and Pension Funds is therefore discontinued. More information can be found via the link in paragraph 3.
