Market Overview
The Motor Insurance market is expected to register a CAGR of 5.03% during the forecast period, 2018-2024. Motor insurance represented 42% of all non-life gross premiums of the overall property and casualty insurance market in 2017. Motor and other traditional P&C lines, both personal and commercial, are likely to face sluggish growth in the coming years. Motor insurance premium growth has been diverging in the developing markets over the last decade. Premium growth in the mature markets has stagnated, while motor insurance has expanded rapidly in the emerging markets. The outlook for advanced economies, however, is improving and is expected to pick up, in line with economic growth over the forecast period.
Technology plays a major role in the new motor insurance market. The market is changing with the integration of new technology, like automation, tracking, and IoT technology. Major players, like Allianz, PICC, and PING AN, are integrating technology with motor insurance to create lucrative policies and options for the younger consumers that are flooding the automotive industry.
For instance, Allianz Insurance and Marmalade have extended their partnership with Allianz Insurance now becoming a telematics service provider for these young driver offerings. The Allianz Connected Car platform is already live in multiple countries with over 14 billion km of driving knowledge already collected. This knowledge enables Allianz Insurance to support Marmalade in offering the best products and services to its customers.

Key Market Trends
Emerging Countries Driving the Market Growth
Emerging countries will remain the growth engine of the global economy and insurance industry over the next decade, reflecting a continuing shift of economic power from west to east. Emerging economies together will account for 60% of global growth in 10 years’ time. The seven largest emerging markets will contribute up to 42% of global growth, with China on its own contributing 27%. Economic growth also drives growth in the insurance sector, with the emerging markets’ share of global premiums forecast to increase by about 50% over the next 10 years.
Growth-enabling regulation helps increase insurance penetration in emerging markets and create a social safety net, pointing to governmental policies that promote insurance take-up, help build financial resilience of households and develop certain industries. For example, compulsory motor third-party liability (MTPL) insurance can protect drivers against liability claims for death or injury to individuals. In addition to this, international solvency standards are being adopted at different speeds by different emerging nations. They are designed to protect consumers, maintain financial stability, and build trust in insurance companies.
The use of technology in insurance is helping make products more affordable, business more profitable and provide access to new risk pools, however, that the adoption of tech is not uniform across emerging markets. While China has become a major enabler of insurtech solutions, adoption has been slower elsewhere.
The growth rate in emerging Asia is forecast to be three times the world average over the next two years and China remains on course to be the biggest insurance market by the mid-2030s.
Growth Opportunities in the Commercial Fleet Market
Motor fleet insurers have struggled with intense competition and falling margins in recent years, but a brighter future lies ahead. Changing mobility patterns, demographic developments, and new technologies will drive the return of the fleets, creating exciting opportunities for insurers over the next five to ten years.
Competitive Landscape
The market is slightly consolidated in nature with the presence of global and country level players. Most of the global players like Allianz have a strong geographical presence in multiple countries offering a wide array of services. Furthermore, these global players form joint ventures with local companies in developing countries to tap the emerging market.
