Market Overview

Auto insurance is a contract that safeguards policyholders against monetary loss in the case of an accident or theft between the policyholder and the insurance provider. The insurance company agrees to reimburse the policyholder's losses as specified in the policy in exchange for the policyholder paying a premium. As a financial safety net, auto insurance protects people from physical injury brought on by traffic accidents and vehicle theft. It also includes costs resulting from collisions in which the owner of an insured vehicle bears responsibility for harm done to other drivers, other cars, or property such as buildings, fences, or utility infrastructure. While state laws governing auto insurance are different many states require the purchase of liability coverage for both property damage and bodily injury before a vehicle can be operated or maintained on a public road. Increased accident rates, stringent government regulations about auto insurance purchases, and rising global automobile sales due to rising consumer per capita income are the main factors propelling the global auto insurance market forward. Additionally, throughout the forecast period, emerging nations' growing need for third-party liability coverage and the integration of new technologies into current product and service lines are anticipated to present appealing possibilities for the growth of the auto insurance market.

Driving Factors

The need for commercial vehicles is increasing as a result of growing economic activity in both developed and developing countries. The e-commerce industry's explosive growth has greatly pushed global demand for commercial vehicles, which has increased demand for transportation solutions globally. Over the projection period, there is anticipated to be an increase in demand for car insurance due to the growing global usage of personal and commercial automobiles. Purchasing a car insurance policy is mandated by law in many countries. Consequently, the regulations governing car purchases significantly impact the expansion of the auto insurance industry. Furthermore, the increase in incidents in recent years, including traffic injuries, drunk driving, and speeding while distracted, has made auto insurance important. For protection against financial losses, such as harm to other drivers, passengers, or pedestrians, the majority of automobile owners depend on their auto insurance.

Restraining Factors

Lack of understanding and comprehension of auto insurance coverage is a major factor impeding the expansion of the auto insurance industry. The main issue that has to be resolved by closing knowledge gaps in the automotive insurance industry is consumer experiences with frequent traffic accidents and low uptake of auto insurance.

Market Segmentation

The global auto insurance market share is segmented into application, distribution channel, and coverage.

• The personal segment dominates the market with the largest market share through the forecast period.

Based on the application, the global auto insurance market is segmented into personal and commercial. Among these, the personal segment dominates the market with the largest market share through the forecast period. A car that is designated as a personal vehicle can accommodate up to eight passengers, including the driver. Owing to their increased durability, enhanced comfort, and cost-effectiveness, these vehicles have experienced substantial market expansion. The growing consumer demand for personal vehicles and the fact that more passenger cars are being produced globally than commercial vehicles are driving the segment's expansion.

• The insurance agents/brokers segment is anticipated to grow at the fastest CAGR growth through the forecast period.

Based on the distribution channel, the global auto insurance market is segmented into insurance agents/brokers, direct response, banks, and others. Among these, the insurance agents/brokers segment is anticipated to grow at the fastest CAGR growth through the forecast period. Insurance agents and brokers are utilizing various websites and online selling platforms in response to the increasing need for personalized and customized services, which is a key trend in the auto insurance industry. In addition to purchasing insurance from different companies, insurance brokers use their in-depth understanding of risks and the insurance market to identify and arrange the best insurance plans for their clients.

• The third-party liability coverage segment accounted for the largest revenue share through the forecast period.

Based on the coverage, the global auto insurance market is segmented into third-party liability coverage, collision/comprehensive, and other optional coverage. Among these, the third-party liability coverage segment accounted for the largest revenue share through the forecast period. To defend against claims from other parties, one purchases third-party liability insurance coverage. When it comes to vehicle insurance, third-party coverage guards against claims of losses and damages incurred by uninsured drivers who are not covered under the policy. Third-party liability insurance becomes mandatory under the Motor Vehicles Act. New and old vehicle owners must be present at the moment of vehicle registration, which is a major factor driving the market's growth internationally.
