Core Viewpoint - The recent notification from the National Financial Supervision Administration emphasizes the implementation of "reporting and execution consistency" in the non-auto insurance sector starting November 1, 2025, aiming to address long-standing issues such as high costs and low rates in the industry, leading to a phase of high-quality development focused on compliance and quality [1][2]. Group 1: Regulatory Changes - The notification prioritizes the optimization of assessment mechanisms, requiring insurance companies to reduce the weight of premium scale, business growth, and market share in evaluations, while increasing the focus on compliance, quality, and consumer rights protection [2]. - The "reporting and execution consistency" mandates that the insurance terms and rates executed by companies must align with those submitted to regulatory authorities, aiming to curb excessive reliance on intermediaries and low-price customer acquisition strategies [2][3]. Group 2: Financial Performance and Market Dynamics - Non-auto insurance premiums reached 514 billion yuan in the first half of 2025, marking a 5.6% year-on-year increase and accounting for 53% of total property insurance premiums, positioning it as a key growth driver for the industry [1]. - The industry has faced challenges such as high expense ratios and the phenomenon of "increased revenue without increased profit," driven by aggressive competition among companies [1][2]. Group 3: Implementation Measures - The notification introduces strict constraints on insurance companies, requiring them to scientifically determine insurance rates and establish a mechanism for periodic review and dynamic adjustment of rates [3]. - A new "fee-for-policy issuance" system mandates that insurance companies issue policies and invoices only after collecting premiums, aimed at preventing off-the-books operations and reducing claims disputes [3]. Group 4: Industry Response and Future Outlook - The regulatory framework is complemented by industry self-regulation, with monitoring of abnormal commission rates and penalties for false reporting or rate adjustments [4]. - Experts believe that the "reporting and execution consistency" reform will lead to a healthier market order, shifting the focus from scale and channel competition to risk management and service quality, although some smaller companies may experience slowed premium growth in the short term [4].
