UK Personal Lines Insurance: Distribution and Marketing 2016

Synopsis

In the midst of an “insurtech” revolution, the personal lines distribution space faces a number of new challenges to the status quo and a raft of opportunities to better engage with customers. New approaches are perhaps most needed by a broker channel that needs to find a reinvigorated sense of its unique benefits, as it has slipped behind the direct channel for share of business. The future of the banking and retail/affinity channels meanwhile depends on the continued appetite these segments have to focus on non-core lines of business.

Summary

- The direct channel is pulling away from the broker space as the most frequently used channel by personal lines insurance customers.
- The banking channel’s footprint on insurance distribution is slowly fading but it remains a key source for home insurance policy purchasing.
- Our 2016 General Insurance Consumer Survey found that Comparethemarket.com stood as the most popular comparison site used for purchasing home and motor insurance in 2016, among respondents.
- General insurance marketing spend is declining year-on-year.
