Insurance Industry Market Research Reports by Researchica
Consumers are increasingly purchasing insurance via the direct channel. The channel held a 48.1% share of the personal lines distribution market in 2018, up four percentage points a year prior. The direct channel has become particularly prevalent in private motor insurance, which is the largest personal line by gross written premiums. The shares of the broker, affinity, and bank channels saw declines. Customers show a preference for online channels when buying insurance. Customer engagement remains challenging, with a significant proportion of costumers indicating they switch at renewal.

This report explores customer purchasing behavior and how consumer preferences are changing over time. It uncovers the differences, expected market share, key insurance brands, and footprint by product that each key distribution channel accounts for. The report also provides a forecast on how the personal lines distribution split will evolve over the next few years and looks into the key trends and new propositions that may drive this.

Scope:

#. The direct channel has grown over the recent years to account for almost half of the distribution of personal lines. This has been at the expense of the bank and affinity channels, which have seen a gradual fall in their market shares.
#. Aviva stands out as a personal lines provider, ranking in the top three in all lines examined - motor, home, pet, and travel insurance. However, Petplan has the largest share of respondents in any one product line, with roughly a fifth of the pet insurance market.
#. Compare the Market attracts the largest number of sales through price comparison sites, enjoying a healthy lead in all four lines in terms of use by survey respondents. Admiral is often chosen as the insurer of choice by customers using price comparison sites.


Reasons to Buy

#. Understand how consumers purchase motor, home, travel, and pet insurance across all channels - direct, broker, bank, affinity, and price comparison sites - and how this is likely to change in the near future.
#. Discover how each of the channels have grown over the recent years and which are the most selected providers by product line.
#. Improve the customer journey and brand loyalty by understanding what influences purchasing decisions and how to meet customer needs.
#. Explore the level of customer satisfaction in each of the channels by getting to know the switching behavior at renewal.
#. Have a view on which insurance providers have the largest spend in advertising and understand which advertising product attracts the largest spend.
#. Get to know about the key emerging players, as well as how existing brands are reinventing their value propositions.

Insurance Industry Market Research Reports by Researchica

As digitization continues to shape customers’ attitudes and purchasing behaviors, insurers are being forced to rethink their distribution models and put a greater focus on the direct channel. For both non-life and life products, price and reputation are at the heart of the customer decision-making process. Established players have the largest market shares for direct sales, but new entrants have focused their efforts on the direct channel and have excelled at removing friction from the customer journey. This is helping them differentiate their brands. Most insurers continue to hold strong ties with intermediaries, but the prospect of improved margins will incentivize them to continue investing in the direct channel.


This report explores how the insurance industry has evolved from selling products almost solely via brokers and other intermediaries to more direct methods as consumers become increasingly connected. It highlights which business lines have been most commoditized, rendering them more suitable for direct and unadvised sales. It explores how insurers are changing their communication strategies in a bid to improve customer engagement and retention. The report also reveals which mediums and technologies have the potential to generate further opportunities to engage with customers and improve brand awareness.



Scope:

#. The direct channel is experiencing the fastest growth with both non-life and life products, although it is still more prominent for the former.
#. Direct sales are also better established within personal lines than commercial products, as consumers’ willingness to pay for financial advice dissipates and online media facilitates direct interaction.
#. As the direct channel grows, insurers are putting a greater focus on the user experience and overall customer journey. Insurers are increasingly present across different media, including social media and messaging apps.
Reasons to Buy

#. Examine the size of the direct channel across selected key countries.
#. Understand the key factors contributing to the rapid growth of the direct channel.
#. Learn what insurance companies are doing to successfully communicate and engage with customers
#. Improve the customer journey and brand loyalty by understanding what matters to consumers.
#. Discover which are the most selected providers in the direct channel by non-life and life product lines (UK only)

Insurance Industry Market Research Reports by Researchica

This report provides an in-depth analysis of the demographic trends that will shape the insurance industry over the next 30 years. It looks at various different demographic trends, insurance product penetration rates among different demographics, and highlights players in the industry that are addressing these trends.






Changes in demographics will fundamentally shift the types of consumers that insurers need to target, as well as the types of products they need to provide. An aging population will put increased strain on state pensions and social services like public healthcare. A declining middle class due to median incomes not increasing as fast as other core goods and services means young people are buying a house, getting married, and starting families at later points in life. And a larger proportion of the population living in urban areas leads to increased health risk due to pollution, poor hygiene, and other urban lifestyle factors. These three factors will help shape the insurance industry going forward.






Scope:

#. Renters are much less likely to hold some form of home insurance compared to mortgagors.
#. Private healthcare will become more popular as an aging population stretches public resources.
#. Stagnant middle-class incomes will reduce uptake of insurance policies.

Reasons to Buy

#. Identify changes to customer profiles over the next 30 years.
#. Be prepared for changing consumer needs when purchasing insurance.
#. Plan for the future to stay ahead of the competition.
