Homeowners’ insurance continues to show strong overall growth, says Aon Benfield in its latest annual "Homeowners ROE Outlook report," even though return on equity for insurers continues to decrease.

The report, released today by the reinsurance intermediary and capital advisor of London-based Aon plc, found that U.S. homeowners' premiums increased from $74 billion in 2011 to $89 billion in 2015.

The report also projects that homeowners' premiums will rise to $91 billion for 2016, based on prospective rate activity.
