Abstract

Die Versicherungswirtschaft steigerte ihr Prämienvolumen 2008 nach zwei ungünstigen Jahren neuerlich um nur 1,4%. Wegen hoher Abschreibungen brachen die Finanzerträge jedoch ein. Der Anstieg der Leistungen verflachte gegenüber den Vorjahren – besonders in der Krankenzusatz- und der Schaden-Unfallversicherung –, sodass ein positives versicherungstechnisches Ergebnis erzielt wurde. Deshalb blieben die Preise von Privatversicherungen 2008 weitgehend stabil. Die Finanzmarktkrise erhöhte den Druck zur raschen Umsetzung von Solvency II, wobei die in einigen Testrunden entwickelten Rahmenbedingungen von der Regulierungsbehörde deutlich verschärft wurden.
