Life Insurance Sector Scorecard – Thematic Intelligence
Viewing the world’s data by themes makes it easier to make important decisions. Companies that invest in the right themes become success stories and those that miss the big themes end up as failures. Given that so many themes are disruptive, it is very easy to be blindsided by industry outsiders that invade a sector.
The life insurance industry is evolving as key technology and macroeconomic trends are having a significant impact on the industry. An increase in the availability of consumer data has led to a rise in personalized products. Technologies such as AI and big data analytics are central to harnessing that rise to create the best possible outcomes. Technological developments are enabling the industry to become increasingly efficient in its operations and develop new products across life and non-life insurance markets. With customers demanding a more agile and personalized insurance experience, providers must be at the forefront of adoption, or they will be faced with the prospect of a shrinking customer base.
To help our clients gain a competitive advantage, GlobalData has developed a unique thematic research ecosystem. This is a single, integrated, global research platform that provides an easy-to-use framework for tracking all themes across all companies in all sectors. The life insurance sector scorecard thematic intelligence report provides a top-down, comprehensive outlook for key players in the life insurance sector over the next two years, based on the key themes set to transform their industry landscape.
Life Insurance Theme Map
Some of the biggest themes that are impacting the life insurance sector are ESG, COVID-19, and personalization. The figure below depicts our theme map for the life insurance industry. This map highlights the current themes that are driving share prices and reflects an up-to-date view of the major issues that keep senior industry executives and investors awake at night.
ESG: ESG is a key issue for an insurer’s public relations, profitability, and staff retention. Insurance is a leading industry and must be seen as a leader in key issues within ESG, such as sustainability and climate change. Consumers and businesses are concerned with the ESG records of companies they purchase from or partner with, so it is essential to be proactive within this theme.
COVID-19: COVID-19 has been the defining issue for the industry over the past few years. Most countries have returned to a form of normality, and while behaviors formed during the pandemic live on, it is no longer a defining factor across insurance products. Increased awareness of health following the pandemic will help life insurers and increase penetration of a range of products, with consumers more aware of the potential impact unknown illnesses can cause.
Personalization: Personalization is a key theme, as businesses and consumers want policies to be as efficient as possible. Within life and health, personalization concerns a wide range of health metrics as well as exercise and nutrition data. This allows insurers and customers to see improvements, while also offering advice or tailored exercise and eating plans.
