Insurance Predictions 2023 - Thematic Intelligence
Summary
This report explores which themes will have the biggest impact on the insurance industry across 2023. For each theme, we offer a series of predictions, identify winners and losers, and point you to further reading.
In this report, we identify the top 15 themes that will impact the insurance sector in 2023, led by Inflation, ESG, Cyber Insurance, and Personalization. Inflation and the cost-of-living crisis is the single biggest challenge facing consumers and businesses in the UK and across the world at present. It has largely been caused by the Ukraine/Russia conflict, due to a heavy reliance on Russia for energy supply and on Ukraine for certain food products. The insurance industry is significantly impacted by macroeconomic factors, and consumers and businesses with less disposable income that are looking to cut down on expenses going into 2023 present a significant problem for the industry.
