DUBLIN --(Business Wire)--

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/sdjzwc/personal_accident) has announced the addition of the "Personal Accident and Health Insurance in Finland, Key Trends and Opportunities to 2017" report to their offering.

In terms of gross written premium, personal accident and health is the smallest segment in the Finnish insurance industry.

Overall, the value of the segment is expected to increase from EUR0.4 billion (US$0.5 billion) in 2012 to EUR0.6 billion (US$0.7 billion) in 2017, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.4%.
