Description

United Kingdom (UK) Commercial Motor Insurance Market Dynamics, Competitor Landscape, Growth Opportunities and Forecast, 2022-2026

Summary

This report analyzes the UK commercial motor insurance market, looking at drivers of uptake. It explores the claims landscape in 2021, as well as the broader motor market and upcoming regulatory changes. Incumbent competitors are analyzed and compared, along with newcomers and insurtechs within the space. Future impactors in the market (including inflation) and emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence and autonomous vehicles are also discussed.

The growth in gross written premiums (GWP) in the UK commercial motor insurance market was driven by an increase in the number of light goods vehicles (LGVs) on the road in 2021, as COVID-related lockdowns and behaviors established during the pandemic drove demand for home deliveries. Despite the number of miles driven on UK roads for all vehicle types increasing, claims recorded by the Compensation Recovery Unit (CRU) fell by 13.3% in 2021 compared to 2020, providing good evidence in favor of the Civil Liability Act. The cost-of-living crisis and the Russia/Ukraine conflict are already having an impact on the motor insurance market. Consumers are reducing the amount of fuel they are using, which will lead to reduced mileage on insurance policies. In addition, increased costs around car ownership will prevent new businesses and SMEs from entering the market
