The S&amp;P Insurance Select Industry Index has lost nearly 1% in the past year, outpaced by a roughly 3% gain for the benchmark S&amp;P 500 index. Still, most large insurance companies remain well-capitalized and have hardly lost ground on the list: With rates still high, that means more cash for insurers to take in.<\/p>\n<p>\u200b\u200bOne hundred insurance companies made this year\u2019s Forbes Global 2000, which ranks the 2,000 largest public companies in the world using a composite score that takes into account revenue, profit, assets and market value. Insurance giants spread across the United States, China, Germany, France and Switzerland make up five of the top 100 on the list, down from 11 last year.<\/p>\n<p><fbs-ad position=\"top\" progressive=\"\" ad-id=\"article-0-top\"><\/fbs-ad><\/p>\n<p>UnitedHealth Group took the industry\u2019s top spot on the list, rising seven spots to No. 15. Also the highest-ranked U.S. firm for another year running, Minnetonka, Minn.-based UnitedHealth posted nearly $336 billion in 12-month revenue, the ninth-most of the world\u2019s public companies, while its stock held largely flat during that period. With a market capitalization of nearly $500 billion\u2014also among the biggest on the list, the firm posted net profit of $20 billion last year.<\/p>\n<p>A close second this year\u2014and the highest-ranked insurance company in 2022\u2014was the Ping An Insurance of China, which gained one spot to come in at No. 16. The company holds a whopping $1.6 trillion of assets, with 12-month revenue of $166 billion and net profit of over $12 billion last year. Beyond insurance, Ping An also offers banking, asset management and healthcare services.<\/p>\n<p>Germany\u2019s Allianz (No. 37), France\u2019s AXA (No. 48) and China Life Insurance Co. (No. 62) round out the top five largest insurers, similar to last year\u2019s results. CVS, which is classified as a pharmaceutical retailer rather than an insurance company but owns insurer Aetna, ranks No. 65, down from No. 42 last year.<\/p>\n<p>U.S. insurance firms had mixed results this year, though several large companies jumped up the list. Connecticut-based health insurer Cigna advanced to No. 68 from No. 84 last year, while Indiana-based Elevance Health rose to No. 78 from No. 88. Louisville, Kentucky-based Humana, moved up to No. 201 from No. 248. Its stock jumped 15% over the last 12 months while annual revenue also moved higher.<\/p>\n<p>Several also lost ground American International Group, one of the list\u2019s biggest gainers last year, fell to No. 123 from No. 90 as shares and revenue declined. New York-based MetLife, whose stock has plunged 25% in the last year, dropped to No. 168 from No. 74.<\/p>\n<p>Other notable insurance companies on the list outside the top 100 include Swiss giants Zurich Insurance Group (No. 106) and Chubb (No. 112), Germany\u2019s Munich Reinsurance (No. 114) and Japan Post Holdings (No. 143).<\/p>\n<p><fbs-ad position=\"topx\" progressive=\"\" ad-id=\"article-0-topx-1\"><\/fbs-ad><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"subhead3-embed color-body bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\"><\/h3>\n<h3 class=\"subhead3-embed color-body bg-base font-accent font-size text-align\">RELATED ARTICLES<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read the full article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/sergeiklebnikov\/2023\/06\/08\/forbes-global-2000-the-worlds-largest-insurance-companies-in-2023\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Insurance companies have slightly lagged the market but rising interest rates bolster income.
