4 Life insurance market statistics highlights - June 27 As at 3 June 27 there were 34 life insurance companies operating in Australia. They managed around $256.6 billion in assets (backing both Australian and overseas policyholders) and received $41.5 billion in premium income (that is, regular in force premiums at the end of the year plus new single premium business) for the year ended 3 June 27. Superannuation business made up 9 per cent of life insurance office assets (backing Australian policyholder liabilities) and accounted for 88 per cent of premiums. Ordinary business of life insurance companies accounted for the remainder of premiums. Around 2 per cent of all superannuation assets are held in life insurance policies. Of the two broad types of life insurance products, regular (or annual) premium and single premium, single premium business now accounts for 82 per cent of life insurance premiums, of which, 97 per cent relates to superannuation business. The top three life insurance groups accounted for 64 per cent of total industry assets backing Australian policyholder liabilities. They also accounted for 75 per cent of new business premiums and 68 per cent of total premiums received. In the same context, the top ten life insurance groups represented 94 per cent of total assets backing Australian policyholders, 96 per cent of new premiums and 94 per cent of total premiums. Foreign owned life insurance companies accounted for 27 per cent of total life office assets backing Australian policyholder liabilities.
