Saudi Arabia covers about 80% of the Arabian Peninsula. The Saudi non-life insurance market, excluding health business, fell by 4.93% in 2017, having grown by only 4.12% in 2016. This followed strong growth over the previous five years. Total market gross premium income that year amounted to SAR 36.50bn.

In 2019 there were 32 licensed insurance and insurance/reinsurance companies, and one pure reinsurance company in the market.

Distribution systems, which remained traditional for many years, have been evolving in line with the progressive changes taking place in the market as a result of the impact of the Cooperative Insurance Companies Control Law, subsequent regulations and increasing competition in the market
