The Global Space Insurance Market Size is expected to reach USD XX.XX Billion by 2032, at a CAGR of 16.7% during the forecast period 2022 to 2032. As more nations and private organizations participate in space exploration activities and businesses, the demand for space insurance is expected to rise, making it a vital component of risk mitigation in the space industry.

 

Space insurance, commonly referred to as satellite insurance or space risk insurance, is a type of specialized insurance that insures likelihood connected with space-related activities such as launch, in-orbit operations, and other phases of spacecraft or satellite missions. Space insurance is an integral part of the governmental and corporate businesses that participate in space missions because it entails high costs, highly sophisticated equipment, and severe dangers. Insurance acts as a safety net, allowing entities to embark on risky space missions with security. Additionally, space insurance encourages private sector investment and engagement, which is becoming increasingly important as space commercialization accelerates. The overall expense of space insurance premiums is determined by a number of criteria, including the kind of vehicle, intended mission, launch vehicle, past performance of the operators, and contemporary space-related parameters. The space insurance industry is small and highly specialized, with just a few insurers operating globally. As the space sector expands and grows in diversity, it also affects the space insurance market, which now includes coverage for emerging industries like space exploration, space tourism, and asteroid extraction.

Market Segmentation

 

By Type Insights

The launch segment is dominating the market with the largest revenue share over the forecast period.

On the basis of type, the global space insurance market is segmented into the manufacturing, pre-launch, launch, on-orbit, de-orbit, and others. Among these, the launch segment is dominating the market with the largest revenue share of 38.6% over the forecast period. The launch phase contains some of the most significant hazards in a space vehicle's life cycle, necessitating extensive insurance coverage. Because of the enormous expenses involved with a failed launch, insurance policies in this field attract premiums, which are accounting for a sizable share of the market. Launch insurance covers failures during the initial phase, such as a launch vehicle malfunction that results in the whole loss, partial failure, or misplacement of the spacecraft.

 

By Coverage Insights

The in-orbit coverage segment is witnessing significant CAGR growth over the forecast period.

On the basis of coverage, the global space insurance market is segmented into third-party liability, in-orbit coverage, payload recovery, salvage debris removal, claims assistance, and others. Among these, the in-orbit coverage is witnessing significant CAGR growth over the forecast period. This is due to the fact that the functional lifespan of a satellite in orbit is several years, during which time the satellite becomes vulnerable to a range of threats. In-orbit insurance covers these risks, shielding the spacecraft's owner from the financial consequences of a complete or partial malfunction of the spacecraft throughout its operating life in space. As a result, premiums for in-orbit coverage are relatively high, driving the demand for space insurance.

 

By Application Insights

The satellite communication segment is expected to hold the largest share of the Global Space Insurance Market during the forecast period.

Based on the application, the global space insurance market is classified into commercial, scientific research, military, satellite communication, earth observation, and others. Among these, the satellite communication segment is expected to hold the largest share of the space insurance market during the forecast period. Communication satellites account for a sizable proportion of all satellite launches and are an essential component of worldwide communication systems. The satellite communication section includes communication satellite insurance, which covers a number of different amenities such as broadcasting, telecommunications, and internet access. Because these satellites are vital infrastructure for numerous industries, insurance coverage is essential. As a result, they account for a sizable percentage of the market for space insurance.

 

By End-User Insights

The private companies segment accounted for the largest revenue share of more than 57.2% over the forecast period.

On the basis of end-user, the global space insurance market is segmented into government, private companies, non-profit organizations, research institutions, and others.
