Highlights of this title
There is a wide variety of distribution channels represented in the top 10 insurer chart below. For example, Tesco Personal Finance (now Tesco Bank) has a strong presence, demonstrating that even retail affinities can use their commercial presence and nous to successfully market general insurance.
In 2009, the average claim value increased 4.2% to £1,227 per claim and in correlation the gross claims costs in the UK rose 3.0% to £376m. However the number of theft-related insurance claims fell 1.2% to 306,000: this was expected to rise with the worsening financial situation in the UK and related increasing unemployment rate.
Though the market has been contracting since 2008, the insurers have adjusted their strategies and started to show growth again in 2010, and when the housing market returns to strength the bancassurers who sell much of their home insurance book on the back of mortgage arrangements, and the rest of the market, will start to see more dramatic growth.
