All the vital news, analysis, and commentary curated by our industry experts.
This report examines consumer channel preferences in the personal lines space and how these have changed over time, including the drivers behind customers’ choices. It also forecasts the future of personal lines distribution to 2027.
We estimate that in 2023, the direct channel remained the preferred choice for personal insurance purchases, accounting for 51.5% of distribution. Meanwhile, we expect the broker channel to have increased its market share to 33.7% in 2023e. On the other hand, we expect the bank and affinity channels to have lost market share in 2023e, falling to 5.9% and 6.2%, respectively. As insurers and distributors continue to enhance their online capabilities, consumers are increasingly opting for online insurance purchases. Notably, consumers prioritize cheaper premiums and reputation when selecting an insurance provider.
