  1. Note 1: GDP is per capita economic growth; LID is life insurance density; NID is non-life insurance density; TID is total insurance density; and EZP is Eurozone panel
  2. Note 2: r is the co-integrating vector
  3. Note 3: The cointegration test conclusions are reported on the basis of Johansen and Juselius test
  4. Note 4: ** is statistical significance at 5% level
  5. Note 5: The Johansen test follows the assumptions ‘no trend and no intercept’
