Insurtech Market Analysis by Mordor Intelligence

The insurtech market is currently valued at USD 1.19 trillion in 2025 and is forecast to expand to USD 2.19 trillion by 2030, registering a 13.00% CAGR. The sharp growth reflects a structural change in how insurers design, distribute, and service policies as digital-first experiences become table stakes. Cloud-native migrations, AI-enabled underwriting, and embedded insurance have shifted from pilot initiatives to enterprise standards, allowing carriers to cut operating costs, improve speed-to-market, and reach new customer segments. Government sandboxes in more than a dozen jurisdictions have accelerated solution rollouts, while strategic partnerships with mobility and IoT platforms are redefining risk assessment in auto and property lines. Competitive differentiation now rests on data access, platform agility, and the ability to embed coverage seamlessly into non-insurance purchase journeys, rather than on balance-sheet scale alone.

Key Report Takeaways

  • By product line, Property & Casualty led with 59.12% of the insurtech market share in 2024, while Specialty Lines are projected to post the fastest 19.34% CAGR through 2030.
  • By distribution channel, Traditional Agents/Brokers held 41.20% revenue share of the insurtech market in 2024, whereas Embedded Insurance Platforms are advancing at a 17.20% CAGR to 2030.
  • By end user, Retail/Individual policies accounted for 67.61% of the demand of the insurtech market in 2024; the SME/Commercial segment is forecast to grow at 15.60% CAGR to 2030.
  • By geography, North America commanded 37.79% of the insurtech market in 2024, yet Asia-Pacific is poised for the highest 16.78% CAGR between 2025-2030.

Segment Analysis

By Product Line: Specialty Lines outpace mature P&C growth

Property & Casualty dominated revenue with a 59.12% insurtech market share in 2024, reflecting entrenched auto and homeowner demand foundations. Nonetheless, Specialty Lines, encompassing cyber, pet, marine, and travel, are forecast to expand at a 19.34% CAGR through 2030, delivering the fastest incremental premium. Embedded IoT sensors and parametric triggers allow Specialty products to circumvent traditional loss-adjustment delays, creating superior customer experiences that command higher margins. Carriers such as AXA XL have already debuted generative-AI cyber covers to address data-poisoning exposures arising from enterprise AI rollouts[4]AXA XL, “Generative AI Cyber Coverage Launch,” axa.com . As niche risks proliferate, Specialty innovators can capture outsized wallet-share increases, suggesting the insurtech market size for these lines will compound materially over the forecast window. 

Property & Casualty incumbents, meanwhile, leverage telematics to reclaim pricing precision, yet their extensive legacy books create change-management headwinds. Life and Health insurers pilot accelerated underwriting on cloud platforms, but stricter mortality and morbidity regulations temper speed relative to non-regulated specialty covers. Reinsurers increasingly partner with cyber MGAs to collect proprietary claims datasets, improving portfolio modelling accuracy. Given the divergent growth curves, investors may shift capital allocations toward Specialty underwriters that demonstrate robust risk controls and scalable distribution frameworks.

By Distribution Channel: Embedded models challenge agent dominance

Traditional Agents/Brokers still commanded 41.20% of the 2024 premium, proving that relationship-based advice remains valued. However, embedded channels are set to post a 17.20% CAGR, positioning them as the structural growth engine of the insurtech market. E-commerce, airline ticketing, and ride-sharing apps now integrate one-click coverage, shrinking quote-to-bind times significantly as compared with manual processes. Digital brokers complement the movement by providing API bridges that surface multiple carrier quotes inside partner platforms, improving attachment rates without adding checkout friction. While direct-to-consumer portals gain traction in commoditised lines, they struggle in complex commercial risks where advisory depth matters, keeping agents relevant. 

Aggregators and marketplaces exploit transparency regulation to encourage price competition, yet their commission-based economics invite disintermediation by carriers building native digital storefronts. Banks are reviving bancassurance via in-app offers tied to account-transaction triggers, broadening distribution without branch networks. For carriers, channel diversification mitigates concentration risk and captures incremental data at each customer touchpoint. The insurtech market size attributed to embedded sales is therefore projected to rise materially, even if absolute agent revenue continues to grow in lockstep with overall premium expansion.

By End User: SMEs emerge as digital adoption catalysts

Retail/Individual policyholders generated 67.61% of the 2024 premium, underscoring the outsized contribution of personal lines. Nonetheless, the SME/Commercial cohort is on course for a 15.60% CAGR because vertical SaaS integrations dramatically reduce acquisition costs for policies under USD 5,000 annual premium. Cloud accounting platforms and e-commerce suites embed general liability or shipping cover at invoice creation, moving insurance purchase from afterthought to workflow staple. For large enterprises, captive programmes and risk analytics platforms deliver self-insurance efficiencies but limit third-party premium growth, aligning carrier strategies toward mid-market niches. 

SMEs historically lacked tailored products due to sparse loss data, yet IoT devices and open banking feeds now furnish underwriting signals that enable parametric and pay-as-you-use constructs. Embedded insurers partnering with point-of-sale vendors can secure daily micro-premiums, smoothing cash flow relative to lump-sum annual invoices. Government entities are also experimenting with digital procurement of infrastructure and crop-risk covers, creating public-sector proof points for insurtech market adoption. Over the forecast period, platforms able to aggregate fragmented SME demand are projected to capture an increasing insurtech market share by leveraging data-driven pricing.

Geography Analysis

North America retained 37.79% insurtech market share in 2024, benefiting from deep venture capital pools and established innovation hubs. State-level regulatory competition, exemplified by the Kentucky Insurance Innovation Sandbox, accelerates pilots that often expand nationwide after proof-of-concept results meet solvency criteria. US auto insurers remain early adopters of telematics, while Canadian carriers deploy cloud-native policy administration to overcome geographic service dispersion. M&A activity intensifies as incumbents buy capabilities; Munich Re’s USD 2.6 billion purchase of Next Insurance marked a notable 2025 expansion into US primary lines[5]Munich Re, “Next Insurance Acquisition Press Release,” munichre.com . Although market maturity constrains headline growth, North American carriers drive profit through operating expense reductions and cross-selling of ancillary cyber and identity-protection bundles.

Asia-Pacific, forecast to grow 16.78% annually to 2030, benefits from high smartphone penetration, government-backed fintech policies, and limited legacy system drag. China and India liberalised foreign ownership caps, encouraging global insurers to localise AI underwriting engines on hyperscale clouds with regional data centres. Singapore’s Monetary Authority operates a well-defined sandbox and grants digital composite licences that cover life, general, and health, accelerating regional scaling. Japanese carriers tackle longevity risk with AI-enabled annuity pricing, and South Korean platforms integrate usage-based mobility cover into ride-hailing super-apps. Lower insurance penetration leaves ample headroom for first-time buyers, so embedded micro-policies sold alongside e-commerce purchases drive volume even at modest ticket sizes.

Europe sustains steady single-digit growth anchored by GDPR-aligned data-governance frameworks, which give local insurtechs credibility on privacy. The forthcoming EU Data Act will mandate standardised vehicle data access, further catalysing telematics product innovation. The UK pursues post-Brexit regulatory agility, enabling faster product approvals while remaining Solvency II-equivalent for cross-border capital relief. Germany’s industrial base spurs demand for advanced commercial and cyber risk solutions, whereas France’s sizeable personal-lines market supports scale economics for behavioural-based pricing. As ESG disclosure rules tighten, European carriers innovate parametric climate-risk covers for agriculture and renewable-energy projects, creating exportable frameworks for other regions. 

South America along with the Middle East & Africa remain nascent but promising. Mobile-money ecosystems in Brazil, Kenya, and Nigeria increasingly bundle micro-accident and hospital-cash products, leapfrogging traditional agency networks. Government-to-person payment platforms provide instant premium-collection rails, de-risking small-ticket offerings. Sovereign risk pools in the Caribbean and East Africa adopt parametric hurricane and drought solutions that trigger emergency funds within 24 hours, validating proof of concept for broader disaster markets. International development agencies often co-underwrite early portfolios, encouraging private carriers to enter once loss-frequency models mature.

Competitive Landscape

The current competitive landscape exhibits moderate fragmentation, with the top five players collectively accounting for a limited market share. This scenario presents substantial opportunities for differentiation and strategic positioning. Players cluster into three archetypes: incumbent carriers digitizing cores, born-digital full-stack insurers, and technology vendors selling SaaS modules. Incumbents leverage brand trust and balance-sheet heft but must modernize legacy estates to match the insurtech market’s agility. Born-digital firms prize rapid iteration and often specialize in a single line before broadening through multi-risk platforms. Technology vendors, including DXC Technology and Microsoft Azure partners, monetize migration toolkits and AI accelerators that enable carriers to leapfrog multi-year waterfall projects. 

Strategic activity intensified in 2025 as reinsurers moved downstream to secure data access and underwriting talent; Munich Re’s integration of Next Insurance into ERGO illustrates the trend. Meanwhile, Zurich’s minority stake in European auto-insurance Ominimo demonstrates how incumbents hedge innovation risk through option-like investments that maintain future acquisition rights. Embedded-platform specialist Bolttech attained a USD 2.1 billion valuation after its Series C, signalling investor belief in orchestration layers that connect insurers and non-insurance brands. Despite funding pullbacks for early-stage ventures, scale-ups with positive loss ratios continue to attract capital, particularly when they expand into under-penetrated APAC or LATAM markets. Over time, competitive advantage will likely accrue to firms that combine proprietary data, modular tech stacks, and prudent re-insurance partnerships, positioning them to expand insurtech market share as consolidation gathers pace.
