From January to June 2026, the volume of insurance premiums increased by 14.4% compared to the same period last year, reaching 2 trillion rubles. The market grew thanks to endowment life insurance (ELI).
Citizens mainly purchased life insurance policies for a period of up to 1 year with guaranteed returns. In most cases, they made a one-time payment, and for half of such contracts, the average amount was over 10 million rubles.
The total amount of insurance contract payments increased by 16% to 1.3 trillion rubles. The net profit of the insurance market decreased by almost one third.
