A market in a fast and strong recovery process, striving to develop new growth paths - this is the picture that comes in mind when looking to the latest results achieved by the Azeri insurers. In 2018, according to data published by the Financial Market Supervisory Authority of Azerbaijan (FIMSA), GWP by the local insurance market reached almost AZN 728 million (+30.7% y-o-y). In European currency, thanks to the Azeri Manat appreciation against Euro, the market results look much more impressive, increasing to EUR 373 million (+36.36% y-o-y growth).

Developing several mandatory insurance lines, as well as reforming the agricultural insurance system or taking steps to the market's digitalization and general modernization are the main growth solutions that will be discussed on the occasion of the 2019 edition of the Conference "Insurance in Azerbaijan: Trends & Opportunities", 28 June 2019, Hilton Hotel, Baku, Azerbaijan.
