French life insurance keeps its momentum as 2026 inflows remain exceptionally strong

France’s life insurance market continued to attract substantial savings in July, extending a strong start to 2026 even as the pace of growth eased compared with earlier in the year.
According to figures published by France Assureurs, life insurance premiums reached €18.8bn in July 2026, up 1 % from a year earlier and setting a new record for the month.

The increase was modest compared with the much stronger gains seen during the first quarter, but the broader picture remains positive.
