Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Mobile Phone Insurance Market
The economic instability and decreased consumer spending triggered by the onset of COVID-19 pandemic led to a reduction in people’s ability to pay phone insurance premiums. In addition to the escalated unemployment rates, many companies deployed pay cut strategies (instead of layoffs) to reduce labor costs. These changes hampered the day-to-day spending of employees, negatively influencing their premium paying activities. Thus, the pandemic hampered the mobile phone insurance market growth significantly in 2020 and 2021. During this crisis, policyholders were filing claims and demanding further extension of mobile phone insurance coverage, which led the insurance companies to make changes in terms of policies in the market. Insurers also had to freeze the sales of new phone insurance schemes.
However, companies in the mobile phone insurance market are expected to gradually revive their businesses from 2022 onwards, which is primarily attributed to favorable government initiatives for the insurance industry, a surge in demand for high-quality smartphones, and a gradual increase in purchasing power of consumers.
A few of the key players operating in the mobile phone insurance market are Allianz; American International Group, Inc.; Apple Inc.; AT&T Inc.; Aviva; Gadget Cover; Pier Insurance Managed Services Ltd.; and Telefónica Limited.
