    sure their families receive the benefi ts when they are
    eligible’  – New York state
    governor Andrew Cuomo

 

  • Of
    the other major insurance markets, the UK and German life insurers
    are largely sheltered from the sovereign debt crisis, at least in
    the event of a relatively orderly Greek exit; while the French
    companies have a more material, albeit manageable, exposure. still,
    each country has at least one notable exception’ 
    Federico Faccio, senior director for insurance
    at Fitch Rating

 

  • ‘Indeed, it is because
    we do not believe our insurance business should be governed by
    regulations written for banks that we have decided to sell our
    depository business’ William Wheeler, president
    of MetLife

 

  • There
    is no appetite for delay amongst large insurers’
    Paul Clark, Solvency II global leader at PwC

 

  • Scale
    and cost efficiencies will be paramount to long-term survival for
    insurers offering this business, with consolidation likely as a
    result’  Bjorn Norrman, associate director
    at Fitch Ratings

 

  • ‘The big problem is we
    still struggle to engage people’ Martin Sincup,
    product manager at LV
