What Are The Leading Drivers Of Growth In The Motor Insurance Market?
The growth of the motor insurance market is anticipated to surge with the rise in the number of vehicles on the road. Various types of automobiles such as cars, buses, and trucks that utilize an energy source for movement, serving the purpose of transporting passengers and goods over land are being insured more for protection against potential financial losses. This subsequently stirs up demand for motor insurance, primarily due to the advantages that it brings, like covering costs for an injured individual, medical expenses, lost earnings, automobile repairs, and other properties damaged during an incident. For instance, based on data from Statistics Canada in November 2023, a slight growth in the total registered motor vehicles on roads was observed in 2022, with the count hitting 26.3 million, marking a 0.3% increase from the year before, equal to a surge of 78,655 units. Hence, this escalation in the amount of vehicles on the roads significantly contributes to the motor insurance market's growth.
