This thesis analyzes the impact of selected macroeconomic and firm-specific factors on stock prices of insurance companies. The first part describes four financial theories used to explain the share price development with a focus on fundamental analysis. The aim of the next part is empirical verification of the strong relationship between selected variables in the period from 01/2003 to 01/2013. In case of its existence, the econometric models using correlation and regression analysis are built. Considering the chosen period of time the impact of the financial crisis on potencial changes of direction and intensity of this relationship can be seen. The analysis uses real-world data from MetLife. The last chapter also describes its characteristics and compares them with the industry.
