2 As of July 31, 2017, SBI Life had a comprehensive product portfolio of 37 individual and group products (of which eight products are group products), including a range of protection and savings products to address the insurance needs of diverse customer segments. View SBI Life is India s largest private life insurer, in terms of new business premium generated in each fiscal year, since FY10 and holds the highest market share (within private players) of 20.04% as of FY17 based on new business premium. Among top five largest private sector life insurers, SBI Life holds second highest market share of 17.82% based on total premium as of FY17. The company has been able to increase its market share of new business premium from 15.87% in FY15 to 20.04% in FY17 on account of sheer growth in new business premium at a CAGR of 35.45% between this period, highest among the top five private players. While the five year CAGR in new business premium is at 9.22%, significantly lower than HDFC Standard Life (17.81% CAGR) and Max Life (13.96% CAGR), suggesting that it has upped its game in the last three years. SBI Life s Assets under Management (AUM) have increased from Rs 713, million as of FY15 to Rs 977, million as of FY17, and stood at Rs 1,012, million as of June 30, Between FY15 and FY17, AUM grew at a CAGR of 17.1% achieving second highest growth among top five private players. SBI Life has a balanced composure towards new business premium with Individual policies contributing 63.77% while group polices contributing the rest and thus the growth in new business premium was led by individual new business premium. For FY17, participating products, non-participating protection products, other non-participating products and unit-linked products contributed 16.89%, 1.48%, 2.66% and 78.97%, respectively of individual new business premium. Although, there has been high reliance on unit-linked products, however, this is lower than share of 84% for ICICI Prudential. According to the management, the high share of unit-linked products is on account to get high-networth individuals as customers and the share is unlikely to go higher. Value of new business margin is significantly higher for SBI Life at 15.4% compared to 10.1% for ICICI Prudential, as of FY17. SBI Life also stands tall on other operating metrics like persistency ratio, which is one of the best in the industry at 81.07% (13th month) while surrender ratio is also one of the lowest at 22.79%. The life insurer also has the highest three year CAGR in renewal premium at 24.21% as against 18.68% for ICICI Prudential and 10.24% for HDFC Standard life. Majority of the policies are towards regular premium than single premium. Operating Expense ratio (excluding commission) is the lowest in the industry at 7.83% while commission ratio is third lowest among top five private life insurers at 3.73%. Nevertheless, the total cost ratio is the lowest among top five private players at 11.56% compared to 13.94% for ICICI Prudential Life and 16.37% of HDFC Standard Life. Death Claim Settlement Ratio for SBI Life is at par with peers at 98% compared to 97.2% for ICICI Prudential and 99.2% for HDFC Standard Life, as of FY17. Solvency ratio as of FY17, also stands strong at 2.04 times for SBI Life as against 1.92 times for HDFC Standard Life and 2.81 times for ICICI Prudential Life. SBI Life also has access to the largest branch network in the country due to its promoter, besides having a strong agency network comprising 95,177 agents as of July 31, For the June quarter, bancassurance contributed 63.54% of new business premium while the rest was through agency. Bancassurance distribution benefits from cost efficiencies and the wellregulated nature of SBI Life s bancassurance partners. Apart from SBI as a bancassurance partner, SBI Life also intends to garner strong relation with newer bancassurance partners Punjab and Sind Bank (with 1,500 branches as of March 31, 2017, primarily in north India) and with South Indian Bank (with 850 branches as of March 31, 2017, primarily in south India). As of FY17, return on embedded value net of tax (ROEV) for SBI Life stands higher at 23% compared to 16.5% for ICICI Prudential. At the higher price band, the issue is valued at 4.2x FY17 embedded value, which is at premium when considered with 3.8x FY17 embedded value for ICICI Prudential. However, considering lower operating expense ratio, strong persistency ratio and low surrender ratio together with higher than industry new business premium growth (FY15-FY17), the premium valuations are justified. SBI Life has been gaining market share leveraging its strong bancassurance channel. Considering low insurance penetration in India and improvement in share of financial savings in household savings, together with strong operational metrics for SBI Life, we recommend to SUBSCRIBE the issue from long term investment perspective. 2
