The rising incidence of road accidents is expected to drive the growth of the family accident insurance market in the coming years. Road accidents are unexpected traffic collisions that result in injury, death, or property damage involving vehicles, pedestrians, or infrastructure. The increase in road accidents is partly due to the growing use of smartphones while driving, as mobile connectivity becomes increasingly integrated into daily life. Family accident insurance provides financial protection for victims of road accidents by covering injuries, disabilities, or fatalities, thereby reducing the financial burden on affected households. For example, in February 2025, according to Carexplore Australia, an Australia-based road safety organization, 114 road deaths occurred in January 2025, representing an 18.8% increase compared to January 2024, which recorded 96 deaths.

The rapid escalation of U.S. tariffs and the resulting trade tensions in spring 2025 are significantly impacting the financial sector, particularly in investment strategies and risk management. Heightened tariffs have fueled market volatility, prompting cautious behavior among institutional investors and increasing demand for hedging instruments. Banks and asset managers are facing higher costs associated with cross-border transactions, as tariffs disrupt global supply chains and dampen corporate earnings, key drivers of equity market performance. Insurance companies, meanwhile, are grappling with increased claims risks tied to supply chain disruptions and trade-related business losses. Additionally, reduced consumer spending and weakened export demand are constraining credit growth and investment appetite. The sector must now prioritize diversification, digital transformation, and robust scenario planning to navigate the heightened economic uncertainty and protect profitability.
