Singapore’s general insurance industry to hit S$7.35b in 2028

The industry will grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.8%.

Gross written premiums (GWP) of Singapore’s general insurance industry will reach S$7.35b (US$5.5b) in 2028, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.8%.

According to GlobalData, investments in infrastructure projects and a rise in the demand for health insurance after the pandemic will support the industry's growth.

Industry growth, however, will slow down compared to 2021 and 2022.

For 2023 and 2024, GlobalData expects the industry to grow by 6.9% and 5.6%, respectively.

In terms of line of business, Personal Accident and Health (PA&H) insurance is leading the industry, accounting for a 23.9% share of the general insurance GWP in 2023.

In 2022, PA&H insurance grew by 32.6%  on the back of heightened demand for health insurance due to increasing awareness after the pandemic, a rise in medical costs due to inflation, and the relaxation of travel restrictions.

Behind PA&H are property insurance and motor insurance, which accounted for a 19.1% and 18.4% share of general insurance GWP in 2023, respectively.

Liability, Financial lines, Marine, aviation, and transit (MAT), and Miscellaneous insurance accounted for the remaining 38.6% of the general insurance GWP in 2023.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
