The "Insurtech - Thematic Research" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
Over 2020-21, the insurtech market was characterized by huge company valuations created though both public and private funding. Interest rate increases - along with increasingly strenuous economic pressures on investors - have acted to reduce the incentives and appetite for investors to get involved in such activity. This trend is likely to persist for the remainder of 2022 and most of 2023.
The effect of the insurtech phenomenon on the wider insurance industry is clear to see. New-age technologies and processes involving artificial intelligence, blockchain, the Internet of Things, and big data have been championed by startups, forcing incumbents to react and match the efficiencies these tools have brought.
Following a few years of high-level investment, high valuations, and high pressure on insurtechs, 2022 has marked the start of a reality check for the sector. Share prices of most publicly listed insurtechs have followed similar downward trends, driving some to artificially inflate their prices.
As the economic situation across the world takes on an increasingly bleak outlook, pressure is now on leading insurtechs to show signs of profitability with investor finance in shorter supply. Many firms have been forced to reduce headcount - often shortly after announcing ambitious expansion plans.
