"UK Personal Lines Distribution" Published

From: Fast Market Research, Inc.
Published: Tue Apr 19 2016


The personal lines insurance market has reached a level where products are priced at such a low rate that shopping around for better deals - which is common across the four main product categories (motor, home, travel, and pet) - is becoming a thankless task with limited benefits. Intense competition has driven rates down to a level where switching provider is beginning to offer little in terms of cost savings. As a result, automatic renewals have increased in most distribution channels and product categories. This trend is set to continue unless a hardening of rates is brought about or capacity is reduced.
