The life insurance segment was the market's most lucrative in 2015, with total gross written premiums of $199.4bn, equivalent to 93.8% of the market's overall value.

Chinese growth was driven by insurers raising guarantee rates to compete with wealth-management products offered by banks, after the regulator removed the interest rate cap on participating policies in October 2015. There is an increasing number of life insurance products, a growth in distribution channels (e.g. online), and the growing bancassurance sector.
