The insurtech market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $13.2 billion in 2023 to $17.09 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 29.5%. The expansion observed in the historical period can be attributed to strong economic growth in emerging markets, the increased digitization of insurance services, the widespread use of robotic process automation in insurance companies, and the growing number of insurtech startups.
The insurtech market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $53.35 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 32.9%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the increase in insurance claims, the rising adoption of advanced technologies in the insurance industry, and favorable government initiatives. Key trends expected in this period include the use of artificial intelligence (AI), a focus on intelligent automation solutions, emphasis on product innovations, the adoption of blockchain technology, an emphasis on partnerships and collaborations, and a focus on the use of IoT (Internet of Things) technology.
The growth of the insurtech market is anticipated to be driven by an increase in insurance claims. Insurtech, which involves the use of technology to enhance various aspects of the insurance process, is particularly effective in processing claims, risk evaluation, contract processing, and policy underwriting. The surge in hospitalization cases during the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a notable rise in insurance claims. For instance, in the first quarter of the financial year 2021-22, 497,909 life insurance claims were settled, which escalated to 956,846 in the second quarter, as reported by The Print, an India-based online newspaper. Additionally, a study by Digit Insurance revealed a more than 3.5 times increase in health insurance claims in 2021. Consequently, the upswing in insurance claims is expected to be a key driver for the growth of the insurtech market.
Favorable government initiatives, particularly in developing countries, are poised to further fuel the growth of the insurtech market during the forecast period. In the 2021-22 budget, the Indian government, as reported by The Economic Times, increased the Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) limit in the insurance sector from 49% to 74%. Additionally, financial injections of INR 30 billion ($413.13 million) into state-owned general insurance companies and an allocation of INR 160 billion ($2.20 billion) to crop insurance schemes were announced. The Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority in India also mandated the issuance of digital insurance policies through the DigiLocker online platform. These government initiatives are expected to contribute significantly to the growth of the insurtech market.
Insurtech companies are increasingly embracing hyper-automation to meet growing client demands and offer competitive pricing. Hyper-automation, a blend of machine learning (ML), artificial intelligence (AI), and robotic process automation (RPA), enables insurtech professionals to conduct business swiftly, efficiently, and securely. According to a study by Cigniti, over 65% of insurtech companies are expected to adopt at least partial hyper-automation by 2024, driven by emerging technologies and evolving client expectations.
