• Korea Insurance: CPI control clouds 2027 health premium hike upside Korea’s government wants to keep inflation low,

which may limit health insurance premium hikes in 2027. This is bad news for non-life insurers relying on premium increases

to boost profits. SGI and Korean Re are seen as safer bets because they’re less exposed to these risks and have strong

financials. The sector’s outlook depends heavily on government policy and the ability to manage claims and costs. (Link)
