United Kingdom (UK) Travel Insurance - Distribution and Marketing 2021

Summary

At a time when COVID-19 is changing consumer behaviors, this report explores how purchasing preferences in the market are changing. It discovers what is most influential to customers when purchasing a travel insurance policy and also reveals the most popular providers in the market. New trends and innovations are highlighted, as well as the key factors that will influence the market over the next few years.

A quarter of travel insurance purchases were through banks in 2021, closely followed by insurers. However, the channels’ market shares declined due to COVID-19. In addition, banks remain the leading purchasing channel for travel insurance in the UK owing to cross-selling of travel insurance as part of packaged bank accounts. The broker channel recorded the highest growth in 2021. This highlights the growing preference for expert advice, which is unsurprising given the ongoing pandemic.

Scope
  • Nationwide remained the leading bank provider in 2021 with a market share of 10.9%. Nationwide reduced staff and administration costs by approximately GBP100 million in 2021, which resulted in a substantial increase in profitability for the provider.
  • Single-trip policies accounted for the largest proportion of travel insurance sales in 2021, while annual policies declined in popularity amid COVID-19-related uncertainty around travel.
  • Consumers visiting a price comparison website declined by 6.1% in 2021. This shows that consumers were increasingly focusing on policy features rather than premiums.
Reasons to Buy
  • Understand consumer purchasing decisions and how these will influence the market over the next few years.
  • Improve customer engagement by recognizing what is most important to them and how insurers can adapt their products and services to meet their needs.
  • Compare the Net Promoter Scores of key insurance providers.
  • Discover which providers lead the way in the household insurance space and learn about new product innovations.
  • Adapt your distribution strategy to ensure it still meets customer purchasing behaviors.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
