Australia Insurance Market Outlook

The Australia insurance market size was valued at USD 73.4 billion in 2023. The market is further projected to grow at a CAGR of 1.8% between 2024 and 2032, reaching a value of USD 86.7 billion by 2032.

 

Key Takeaways

  • The Australian general insurance industry is projected to reach USD 83.9 billion by 2027, from AUD 86.8 billion in direct written premiums (DWP) in 2023.
  • As per industry reports, the underwriting profit in the insurance industry increased from USD 911 million in the 2022 to USD 2,051 million in 2023, primarily due to the release of reserves for severe weather-related events, such as hailstorms and floods.
  • The Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) plays a crucial role in regulating the insurance industry, ensuring financial stability, and monitoring the performance and capital adequacy of insurers.
  • As per Insurance Council of Australia, nearly 38,000 insurance claims were filed due to storms, rain, and flooding that affected the east coast during December 2023.

 

The growth of the insurance market in Australia is influenced by the increased healthcare awareness post-pandemic, leading to a rise in demand for insurance coverage, especially in the health and medical insurance sector. Additionally, the escalating demand for natural catastrophic insurance due to climate change impacts and the surge in property and motor insurance premium rates contribute to the Australia insurance market growth. The industry’s growth is also bolstered by rising vehicle sales, which is driving the share of the motor insurance segment.

 

The trend towards open insurance, driven by initiatives like Australia's Consumer Data Right legislation, is reshaping the insurance sector. Insurers are focusing on leveraging data transparency to offer more personalised products and services, enhancing customer engagement, and driving market competitiveness. Sustainability, particularly environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors, is becoming a strategic priority for insurers, aligning with the global push towards net-zero commitments. This trend not only addresses climate-related risks but also presents opportunities for insurers to innovate in a changing market landscape.

 

Additionally, the industry is experiencing a shift towards more detailed data analytics tools like cloud computing Power BI to drive focused decision-making. The acceleration of technological advancements within the insurance industry is another notable trend shaping the Australia insurance market development. Insurers are embracing digital technologies to enhance customer experiences, streamline operations, and offer innovative products like cyber insurance.

 

Health and medical insurance, the primary line of business in the Australian insurance market, represented 34.8% of premiums in 2023 and has shown consistent growth over ten consecutive quarters and approximately 55% of the Australian population now have health insurance. In addition, rising healthcare costs due to inflation are expected to boost the demand for private health insurance, especially for uninsured consumers, amidst a 5.2% CPI inflation in Australia in August 2023.
