Market Growth Factors

In Turkey, banks have historically used their existing clients to sell insurance products to the mass market. Insurance penetration is low compared to mature markets, but policies are often offered as an accessible investment option when packaged with financial products such as loan and mortgage packages through banks. Digital transformation of financial services through, for example, fintech partnerships, and mobile banking platforms can ease insurance services for younger consumers, and increase insurance take-up and scalability without the need for expensive distribution channels.

Supportive regulation has also contributed to market development. Turkish authorities have effectively enabled the development of bancassurance, offering a regulatory framework which has encouraged transparency and consumer protection, and has also encouraged product development. Standardized disclosures, parallel selling practices, and trust-building measures have established bancassurance as a viable insurance distribution model. Despite net profits reaching about USD 18.8 Billion in 2024 due to increasing loans and deposits, it remains an attractive avenue for bancassurance growth.

Diversification in market also contributed to its growth. Banks have started selling multiple insurance products instead of selling only life insurance and credit-linked products. Furthermore, health, property and investment-linked insurance has seen growing interest due to the expansion of the middle-income market. Encouraged by the government, and helped by regulation, insurance penetration has increased in banking products too. Innovation and competition have been heightened among domestic and international insurers with a presence in Turkey's banking sector.
