Compulsory MTPL insurance was the fastest growing line in the Russian non-life insurance sector in 2015-1H16. Its weight in the sector's primary premiums increased to 24.5% in 2015 from 17.2% in 2014, and to 22.7% in 1H16 from 20.2% in 1H15.

MTPL premiums grew because of two series of MTPL base-tariff increases by the regulator from 4Q14 and from 2Q15.
