Iran insurance industry earned 183 trillion rials ($1.28 billion) from premiums during the first six months of the current Iranian fiscal (March-September).
According to data released by the Central Insurance of Iran, the figure shows a growth of 25.4% compared to the same period last year.

The Iran Insurance Company as the only state-owned insurer had a 32.3% share in the earnings, well above other insurers and the rest belonged to private insurance companies.

Iranian insurers also sold over 30.1 million insurance policies, registering an 8.4% increase year-on-year.

Some 3.71 million tons of oil and non-oil commodities were exported from Iran via land borders during the first half of the current Iranian year from March 21 to Sept. 22, which shows a 17% increase compared with the similar period of last year.
According to Director General of Road Maintenance and Transportation Organization of Iran's Information and Communication Technology Bureau Hossein Motevalli Habibi, Bazargan Border Crossing in the northwestern West Azarbaijan Province accounted for 26% of all exports during the six-month period—more than any other Iranian land border.
