14 Industry SWOT – Strengths & Weaknesses Strengths Indonesias large population, growing economy and insurance sector growing strongly of small base Industry is relatively fragmented, and while majority of market is held by well- established firms, none has a dominant position Economic conditions are, and are likely to remain, favorable Weaknesses Very small market with low product density per capita of USD 32 Unemployment, terrorist threats and lack of institutional transparency remain concerns for businesses considering operations in Indonesia

15 Industry SWOT – Opportunities & Threats Opportunities Several local players are owned by shareholders who are not naturally in the business of providing life insurance or long- term savings solutions If government is perceived to strengthen the legal system and reform bankruptcy laws, there could be significant influx of cross- border life insurers Cross-border life insurers are better placed than local players to weather any future storms in Indonesias underdeveloped capital markets Large uninsured or under-insured population Potential for growth in Takaful and Micro- insurance segments Threats Foreign investment inflows have been volatile, and country depends on foreign capital markets to fund industrial and infrastructure developments Volatile politics, challenging macroeconomics and structural problems mean Indonesia is usually rated as one of the more difficult countries in the region in which to do business Terrorism threat needs to be taken into account when underwriting risks
