The demand for investment-related life insurance products grew in Slovakia during the review period. The economic growth of Slovakia drove consumer attention towards such products, which reduced the popularity of traditional life insurance products such as whole life and term insurance. In such types of insurance, the cash value of the policy varies based on current net asset values of the underlying investment, which supported consumers when the stock market performed well. Unit-linked insurance accounted for 30% of the total Slovakian life insurance segment in 2011. The EU ban on gender-based insurance risk assessment in 2011 is expected to be a challenge for insurers in Slovakia and will increase insurance prices.
