The report revealed that gross life insurance claims amounted to Rs410 billion, while non-life claim payments reached approximately Rs138 billion. Life insurance claims rose from Rs380 billion in 2024, with death claims increasing to Rs37 billion, and non-life claim payments grew from Rs92 billion to approximately Rs138 billion. SECP Chairman Dr Kabir Sidhu emphasized that claims settlement is a crucial measure of insurers' performance, stating that publishing claim amounts and counts will enhance accountability, build policyholders' trust, and support sustainable growth. The industry also experienced overall growth, with total assets increasing by more than 9% to Rs4.1 trillion and gross written premium rising by 15% to Rs778 billion.",
