MARKET SHARE
TYPES OF INSURERS
This calculation is an estimate by AU Group, excluding China Export & Credit Insurance Corporation (“Sinosure”), the public Chinese
insurance company which achieved a turnover of approximatively €1.4 billion (2018 figures, net premium earned).
The International Credit Insurer & Surety Association (ICISA) comprises more than 50 members that provide Trade Credit Insurance across the world. However, two main categories of insurers can be distinguished: “Global” and “Niche” insurers.
“Global” insurers, characterised by: ➤ a strong international presence ➤ detailed information on very large numbers of buyers in their global databases ➤ global capabilities in providing credit management services
Leading insurers in this category: Atradius, Coface, Euler Hermes
“Niche” insurers, characterised by expertise in: ➤ particular products: Excess of loss, shared excess cover, top-up, single risk (e.g.: AIG, Chubb, Garant, Nexus, Liberty Mutual, Lloyd’s, Markel, QBE, Tokio Marine, XL Catlin, Zurich etc.) ➤ certain geographical areas (e.g.: ATI, Cesce, Credendo, FCIA, ICIC, QBE, Sace etc.) ➤ different types of risk: political risk, non-transfer (e.g.: Beazley, Liberty Mutual, Lloyd’s, Zurich...)

TURNOVER OF THE MAIN INSURERS (M€)
KEY FACTS
Credit insuranCe Market survey 2020 T R E N D S & F I N A N C I A L P E R F O R M A N C E
The trade credit market has posted strong growth in 2019 (around + 7%) and all the main insurers have shown good performance following the trend of the overall market.
➤ Atradius continues its very regular growth over the past 5 years (+6% vs 2018) and has now surpassed the €2 billion revenue mark. A new CEO, David Capdevila has been appointed on the 1st of January 2020. The improvement of its Trade Credit Insurance activity has been consistent in all regions of the world, even in Spain, its largest market, in a very challenging competitive environment.
➤ Coface confirms it successful turnaround started 2 years ago and sees an increase in revenue of +6.9%. This growth is mainly due to its policyholders’ business growth, new business development and the acquisition of PKZ (a credit insurer leader in Slovenia). In February 2020, Natixis, Coface’s majority shareholder, sold 29.5% of the credit insurer’s capital to Arch Capital Group (See Shareholder structure hereafter).
➤ As in 2018, Euler Hermes posted the best performance among the “big three”: +7.7% (+7% at constant scope and FX) reaching 2,9 billion euros in revenue. Its new business result has been higher than ever, combined with dynamic organic growth, especially in North America and Asia Pacific. Going deeper into digitization, Euler Hermes has launched new products available through “API” such as “Single Invoice Cover” dedicated to fintechs and start-ups.

Atradius records a tremendous increase of its operational profit +18%, when Coface posted an increase of +8% and Euler Hermes +10%. 2019 has seen net profit at unprecedent levels for the “big 3”.
➤ Atradius has posted a net profit of €228M, +12,5% compared to 2018 (€203M); showing a strong profitability ratio of 11.3% (Net Profit/Turnover).
➤ With a net income up by 20%, Coface’s profitability ratio reached 9.9% (Net Profit/Turnover) and produced an excellent performance: €147M
➤ Euler Hermes is now fully integrated in the Allianz Group and, being one of its main profit contributors, is very discreet in its financial communications; it has not disclosed its net profit for 2019. However, considering the 10% increase in the operating result shown above, we can assume that Euler Hermes not only has the highest net income of the three, but has also recorded a level of profit never seen before.

Covid-19 situation and impact on insurers’ profitability:Credit insurers are facing probably the most difficult situation since they started business and the magnitude of the expected losses is such that in most of the “cradle” states of credit insurance (Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany and UK), the insurers have sought the support of local governments. As a result, these European countries have concluded state reinsurance agreements to be able to cope with the deluge of claims expected in the second half of 2020 and the beginning of 2021. Other countries might follow with government support but there is no consistent approach across Europe. Nor is there, as of today, any significant support outside of Europe.
➤ The insurers’ profitability is determined by their Loss Ratio (claims/premiums) and their Combined Ratio (Loss ratio plus overhead expenses). During the “subprimes” financial crisis more than 10 years ago, insurers were shaken by increased payment defaults, bankruptcies and the resulting claims paid to their insureds. The economic impact of Covid-19 on insurers’ loss ratio will be reflected in our Market Study next year.
➤ The theoretical break-even point of the combined ratio is an estimated 100% (above which Insurers consider that their operations generate a loss).
➤ The top 3 insurers are showing a wider spread in their results in 2019 (than in 2018), but Atradius heads its competitors with a net combined ratio of 73.4%.

➤ Due to further changes in financial regulations(Solvency II), insurance and reinsurance companies are required to increase their capital ratios to be in line with the risks they carry.
➤ Over the past 5 years, credit insurers have beenstrengthening their equity. For instance, Atradius and Euler Hermes report an equity level approximatively equal to their annual turnover, Coface Equity (€1 924M) is much higher than its Turnover (€1 481M).
Reinsurance contributes significantly to the solvency of insurance companies. Its role has increased as credit insurance becomes more important for the growth of trade credit following the tightening of traditional financing across the world.
Atradius, Coface and Euler Hermes which currently cover 80% of credit insurance risks, would be unable to maintain
growth without reinsurance. These insurance companies use reinsurance treaties.
In 2020, credit insurers in some countries have entered reinsurance treaties with their local governments which wish to support trade inter-company credit and assist business recovery.

In February 2020, Natixis, Coface’s majority shareholder, sold 29.5 % of the credit insurer’s capital to Arch Capital Group, a Bermuda-based insurer listed on the New York Stock Exchange. After this operation, Natixis will hold
only 12.2% of Coface’s capital. This operation has been announced but is not effective yet (to be agreed by the regulator (ACPR)).
