Summary/Abstract: This paper analyses the influence of economic slowdown on the insurance markets of selected Central and ...astern ...uropean countries in the years 2009–2013. The paper presents Gross Do- mestic Product growth rate as well as key indicators characterising the insurance market. On this basis a comparative analysis of the discussed countries’ insurance sectors has been carried out. Attention has been drawn to differences in processes that take place on insurance markets of ...uropean Union Member States within the Single Market as well as countries not associated with the ...uropean Union. Particular attention has been devoted to the analysis of geopolitical condi- tions in non-...U countries that influence the insurance market. The document also highlights risks resulting from the advancing increase in damages and benefits in certain countries. Additionally, an analysis of insurance development level as a support tool that supplements the social insur- ance system has been performed.
