Usage-Based Insurance Market to Grow with a CAGR of 26.32% Globally through 2028

Increasing awareness of the benefits of UBI among consumer and rise of autonomous vehicles are factors driving the global usage-based insurance market in the forecast period 2024-2028.

 

According to TechSci Research report, “Global Usage-Based Insurance Market - Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2028”, the Global Usage-Based Insurance Market stood at USD 25.21 billion in 2022 and is anticipated to grow with a CAGR of 26.32% in the forecast period, 2024-2028. Global Usage-Based Insurance (UBI) is a transformative insurance model that leverages telematics technology to monitor and assess policyholders' behavior in real-time. It offers personalized insurance premiums based on individual driving habits, encouraging safer and more responsible driving. UBI programs typically track factors like speed, braking, and location, enabling insurers to calculate premiums more accurately. This innovative approach benefits both insurers, who can reduce claims costs and improve risk assessment, and policyholders, who may enjoy lower premiums. While UBI faces challenges related to privacy, data accuracy, and equity, its adoption is on the rise globally, reshaping the insurance industry and paving the way for more customized and data-driven insurance solutions.

One of the central tenets of global UBI is the use of telematics devices installed in vehicles or smartphone apps that collect a wide range of data on how a person drives. This data encompasses factors such as speed, acceleration, braking habits, and even the time of day and location of travel. With this granular information, insurers can build a more accurate and comprehensive profile of each policyholder's risk, allowing for a more precise assessment of insurance premiums. Safer drivers, those who exhibit responsible habits like obeying speed limits and avoiding sudden stops, are rewarded with lower premiums. Conversely, higher-risk drivers may see their premiums adjust accordingly, incentivizing improved driving behaviors.

Global UBI has seen rapid growth and adoption in recent years, thanks to several key drivers. Technological advancements, including the ubiquity of smartphones and the proliferation of in-vehicle telematics systems, have made it easier and more cost-effective to collect and process the necessary data. This technological evolution has also led to more accurate risk assessments and a more equitable distribution of premiums. As a result, UBI has become an attractive option for insurers looking to leverage data analytics and attract a broader customer base.

Changing consumer expectations are another driving force behind the global UBI trend. Modern consumers increasingly expect personalized, on-demand services tailored to their unique needs and preferences. UBI aligns with these expectations by providing a more interactive and individually tailored insurance experience. Policyholders have the opportunity to influence their premiums directly through their driving habits, giving them a sense of agency and control over their insurance costs. As awareness of UBI's benefits spreads, more drivers are considering making the switch to usage-based policies.

Moreover, government support and regulatory incentives have played a vital role in fostering the growth of UBI globally. Governments in many regions recognize the potential of UBI to promote road safety, reduce emissions, and alleviate traffic congestion. As such, they have introduced policies and incentives to encourage the adoption of telematics-based insurance programs. These measures include tax incentives, reduced registration fees for vehicles equipped with telematics devices, and mandates for insurance companies to offer UBI options. Regulatory support not only legitimizes UBI but also accelerates its growth by creating a favorable environment for insurers to develop and market usage-based products.

Despite its remarkable growth and potential benefits, global UBI faces several challenges that must be addressed for its continued success. One major concern is data privacy and security. With the collection of sensitive driving data, there is a heightened risk of data breaches and unauthorized access. Policyholders worry about the potential misuse of their data, which can lead to privacy concerns and hinder UBI adoption. To address this challenge, insurers must invest in robust data encryption, secure storage, and transparent data usage policies. They must also ensure compliance with data protection regulations to build trust with their policyholders.

The global usage-based insurance market is segmented into vehicle type, vehicle age, policy type, regional distribution, and company.

Based on policy type, the market is segmented into pay-as-you-drive insurance (PAYD), Pay-how-you-drive insurance (PHYD), and manage-how-you-drive insurance (MHYD).

Pay-As-You-Drive (PAYD) insurance is emerging as the fastest-growing segment in global Usage-Based Insurance (UBI). PAYD policies offer a highly flexible and cost-effective insurance solution, with premiums directly tied to the number of miles driven. This appeals to environmentally conscious consumers, urban dwellers, and occasional drivers seeking to lower their insurance costs. PAYD UBI programs utilize telematics technology to accurately track mileage, making it a simpler and more equitable approach to auto insurance. As the demand for personalized and fair insurance rates continues to rise, PAYD insurance is experiencing significant traction, reshaping the landscape of auto insurance and encouraging more responsible driving behaviour.
