Ireland's international insurance sector posted a 42% growth increase in 2001, figures released last week showed.
The Dublin International Insurance & Management Association (Dima) annual survey showed premiums written by member companies topped ¤10bn (£6.4bn) last year.
The underlying asset base grew by a similar amount.
Dima chairman Ian Clancy said the figures could be explained by the hardening market and Dublin's ability to attract new industry participants.
Hosted by comedian and actor Tom Allen, 34 Gold, 23 Silver and 22 Bronze awards were handed out across an amazing 34 categories recognising brilliance and innovation right across the breadth of UK general insurance.
