We look at the current German life insurance market to see a truly independent ranking system taking shape.

HUK-Coburg Leben takes 1st position by a very narrow margin from Familienfürsorge Leben. Lebensversicherung von 1871 isn’t far behind in 3rd spot.

Now let’s look at some of the reasons behind the rankings, shall we?
HUK-Coburg and Familienfürsorge Leben both had a fantastic score in the HGB equity without GR and NV entry, which enabled their Economic Equity Ratio to be increased by 4.5 and 5.66 percentage points respectively.
Lebensversicherung von 1871 did well in the Future Shareholder Gains category, boosting their Economic Equity Ratio by 2.95 percentage points.
These companies were between 3-5% above the Economic Capital Ratio average of 5%. This is the ratio of a company’s own funds to their assets under management. It’s essentially a measure of financial strength.
HUK-Coburg also took top spot in 2020, so a very solid performance to consolidate on that result.
Familienfürsorge Leben and Lebensversicherung von 1871 came 3rd and 5th in 2020 progressively, so both have improved.
A very well done to all companies in the Top 16, all of whom were “Top Rated” by RealRate.
