Allianz remained by far the biggest non-life insurance company in Europe in 2014. Spanish insurance company Mapfre has published the eleventh edition of its list of the biggest non-life insurance companies in Europe. The ranking is based on non-life premium income in 2014 received by the ten biggest insurance companies on the European market. Between them, the ten companies saw their premums rise by 1.5% in 2014 on the 2013 figure, to €205,537 billion, including €145,778 for the top five alone. Allianz remains the unchallenged leading insurance company in Europe, with €48.322 billion of premiums in 2014, well ahead of the next company, Axa, a French company with €32.872 billion of premiums. German insurance companies take up the lion's share of the market with three companies in the top ten. In addition to Allianz, Talanx is in sixth place (€15.845 billion of premiums) and Ergo seventh (€11.291 billion of premiums). Next is France with Covea in ninth position (€11.171 billion of premiums) and ninth is the United Kingdom with Aviva, (€11.141 billion of premiums) and RSA, tenth (with €10.310 billion of premiums).
