Abstract |
The financial services sector in Mauritius contributes to 12 percent of the Gross Domestic Product, with the Insurance, Reinsurance and Pension contributing to 3.2 percent in 2015. This sector has been on the rise over the past decade. Organisational performance has attracted attention in the corporate finance arena; however, the insurance sector has received little attention. This paper aims to determine a series of factors (size, leverage, liquidity etc.) that influence the performance of life insurance companies in Mauritius. This study has identified important determinants and investigated their respective correlation and predictive capacity to develop a model that could be used to monitor their performance to achieve growth and success (2011-2015).
