Growth Drivers

High Adoption of Smartphones among Consumers

The increased adoption of smartphones is predicted to drive the growth of the mobile phone insurance market in Europe. A smartphone is a portable electronic device that has a cellular network connection. A reliable mobile phone insurance plan will cover any necessary repairs or replacements; thus, the market for mobile phone insurance is expected to expand as more people adopt smartphones. According to Uswitch Limited, a United Kingdom-based online and telephone comparison and switching service, estimated about 71.8 million active mobile phone connections in 2022. By 2025, there will be 68.3 million individuals in the UK, with 95% of them carrying smartphones. As a result, the rise in the adoption of smartphones could drive the growth rate of the market during the forecast period.

Increasing Integration of Insurance Offerings with Mobile Apps and Developing Innovative Policies

Rising integration of advanced and innovative policy to the evolving needs of consumers is expected to propel the growth of the Europe mobile phone insurance market during the forecast period. Insurance firms and mobile network providers can combine their insurance offers with mobile apps, making it easier for customers to purchase policies and make claims. It will improve the consumer experience and increase the adoption of insurance plans. Furthermore, insurance businesses and mobile network providers can differentiate themselves by developing novel policy designs that adapt to consumers' changing needs. Policies covering social media hacking or cybersecurity breaches, for example, may appeal to consumers concerned about the security of their personal information. As a result of all these factors, there has been an increase in the demand for mobile phone insurance policies which will enhance market growth.

Restraints

High Costs Associated with Smartphones

The high cost of smartphones is one of the major factors that may hamper the growth of the market during the forecast period. The cost of smartphones can vary depending on several reasons, generally due to import duties, local tax rates, and irregularly plain old profiteering on the part of the manufacturer. For instance, the cost of iPhone Xs is USD 999 in the United States (before taxes). This is approximately EUR 850. That amount, plus 19% taxes (in Germany), equals approximately EUR 1,011.50. In Germany, however, the price of iPhone Xs is EUR 1,149.99. Therefore, the higher cost of smartphones in Europe may eventually affect the demand for mobile phone insurance products. It, in turn, is anticipated to hinder the market growth in the coming years.

Impact of COVID-19 on Europe Mobile Phone Insurance Market

The coronavirus pandemic adversely affected the mobile phone or smartphone market, thereby having a substantial effect on the mobile phone insurance market in Europe. While most companies in the market reported revenue declines from the mobile phone insurance industry, smartphone sales also saw a major drop in the market. However, with the increasing measures by governments in Europe to revive the economy, the market is expected to recover in the coming years. Furthermore, the average smartphone life span is predicted to increase, which will benefit the growth of the mobile phone insurance market over the period in analysis.
