Insurance Industry in India and Role of Aggregators
Insurance GWP collection of India reached USD 97.4 Billion in FY’2019, taking the insurance penetration to 3.7%, lagging behind most of the emerging Asian Economies wit h around 5.6% of penetration. The growth is majorly led by non-life insurance products including Motor and Health owing to initiatives led by government in terms of amending Motor Vehicles Act, 2019 and rising awareness among population for covering the unforeseen risks. Introduction of Web Aggregator Platforms have fostered the need for comparison of different products at a single place, helping customers in making an informed choice. During FY’2019, aggregator firms contributed less than 1% to total GWP collection in India, depicting high growth over past few years yet potential for more to meet European standards.
Different Business Strategies of Players to Up-Ante their Game
While PolicyBazaar continues to be the pioneer in the industry, Coverfox Broking Limited has positioned itself to being an Omni-channel provider of service through their ‘more than 50,000 insurance agents registered on ‘Coverdrive’ segment. In a similar fashion, Bootstrapped PolicyX continues to strengthen its cost leadership by having lowest customer acquisition cost among industry peers. Targeting similar audience, aggregators generally compete on Platform Service, Telemarketing Assistance, Product Portfolio and Partnership with Insurance Providers.
Focus on Rapidly Evolving Customer Behavior
The demand of customers is no longer limited to traditional products of Motor, Health and Term Life and is gradually evolving to risks experienced in domains including cyber, intellectual property, renters, travel, home and contents, business, pet and others. Aggregators need to work hard with Insurance providers to underwrite such risks and simultaneously making efforts to spread awareness among the Tier II and Tier III cities of India. Aggregator firms could also emphasize upon rewarding customers upon fulfillment of precautionary measures specified for each insurance product.
