Fingerprint
Bulstrad Life's line mix, and where it stands among the 36 insurers in Bulgaria on each measure, FY 2025.
Each bar runs from the weakest to the strongest of the insurers in Bulgaria with that figure in FY 2025; the dot is this insurer, the tick in the middle the median. Combined ratios as shown across the site: after reinsurance where published, else gross. The rose: each petal's area is the line's share of written premium; the dashed ring is a quarter.

Premium and lines: FSC (Financial Supervision Commission), market statistics per insurer, sheet Premiums written - gross, by Solvency II line. Claims, expenses and solvency: the insurer's SFCR for FY 2025, templates S.05.01 and S.23.01; claims, expenses and solvency for FY 2021–2024 from the SFCRs of those years. For FY 2021–2022 the insurers whose SFCR has no S.05.01 (Euroins, Lev Ins, Bul Ins, Allianz Bulgaria and smaller ones) count with earned premium, claims and expenses, gross and after reinsurance, from their statutory income statements in FSC's annual statistics: a mixed basis, mostly within 4 points of S.05.01 and usually a little lower where both exist (quality grade B). How these numbers are built.
