Implementing and maintaining technology solutions in the property & casualty (P&C) insurance market poses a significant challenge due to the associated high costs. Developing and maintaining robust digital infrastructure, including core systems and data analytics, requires substantial investments. Smaller insurers may struggle with these costs, which will limit their competitiveness. Additionally, the ongoing expenses for updates, cybersecurity, and compliance can also strain budgets. To address this challenge, insurers are seeking cost-effective and scalable solutions to ensure their long-term viability and competitiveness.

COVID-19 Impact

COVID-19 had negative impacts on the property & casualty insurance market due to increased claims. Business interruptions, event cancelations, and supply chain disruptions have led to a surge in claims related to commercial losses. Additionally, the pandemic strained the global economy, affecting investments and potentially impacting insurer portfolios. Uncertainties and evolving risks also led to more complex underwriting processes. While certain sectors saw growth, the market faced some challenges stemming from the economic and operational disruptions cause by the pandemic.

Property & Casualty Insurance Market Trends

Data analytics is an emerging trend in the market as insurers increasingly harness the power of data to enhance underwriting, claims processing, and risk assessment. Advanced analytics and AI-driven models are used to gain deeper insights into customer behavior and risk factors, allowing for more accurate pricing and policy customization. This trend is driven by a desire for greater efficiency, better risk management, and the ability to offer more competitive and tailored insurance products in an increasingly data-driven world.

Usage-Based Insurance (UBI) is a growing trend, especially in the auto insurance sector. It involves policy pricing based on actual vehicle usage data, collected through telematics devices or smartphone apps. UBI offers personalized insurance rates, rewarding safe driving habits and reducing premiums for low-mileage drivers. Insurers calculate premiums using real-time data on driving behavior such as speed, braking, and mileage.

For instance, in January 2023, New India Assurance introduced the "Pay as You Drive" (PAYD) policy, offering discounts upon renewal, extended coverage beyond distance limits, and enhanced protection such as zero depreciation, roadside assistance, and return-to-invoice benefits, making it a comprehensive and innovative insurance offering.
