Market Overview:

The India bancassurance market size reached US$ 92.6 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 140.5 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 7.1% during 2023-2028. The burgeoning banking, financial services and insurance (BFSI), rapid digitization, and favorable government policies represent some of the key factors driving the market.

Bancassurance refers to a partnership between a bank and an insurance company, wherein the bank acts as an intermediary and sells insurance products to its customers. It allows banks to diversify their product offerings and generate additional revenue by selling insurance products, such as life insurance, health insurance, and general insurance. Moreover, it helps banks to increase customer loyalty and retention. It also facilitates insurance companies to expand their distribution network and reach a wider consumer-base through the established network of the bank. Apart from this, bancassurance aids in reducing the marketing and distribution cost for both banks and insurance companies and saves customers time and effort, as they can buy insurance products without searching for a separate insurance provider. At present, people can buy a wide variety of insurance at their local banks, including, health, property, and casualty insurance, across India.

India Bancassurance Market Trends:

The growing population and the burgeoning banking, financial services and insurance (BFSI) sector currently represent one of the key factors positively influencing the market across India. In addition, Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDAI) is issuing favorable guidelines, including mandatory tie-up of banks with one insurance company, to regulate the sales of insurance products through banks. Moreover, the IRDAI is specifying guidelines on the minimum training requirements for bank staff, maintaining record of details of the customer, insurance products sold, and the commission paid to the bank, which is offering lucrative growth opportunities to key market players operating in the country. Besides this, rapid digitization and increasing adoption of digital channels for offering insurance products through online portals is creating a favorable market outlook. Additionally, bancassurance offers cross-selling opportunities for banks and insurance companies, allowing them to increase their revenue streams. Moreover, bancassurance facilitates customers with the convenience of accessing a range of insurance products through their banks and eliminates the need to approach multiple insurance providers, which, in turn, increases customer satisfaction. In addition, bancassurance providers are offering customized insurance products using artificial intelligence (AI) to meet the specific needs of their customers. They are also focusing on effectively analyzing customer data, improving risk management, reducing losses for insurance companies, and identifying potential risks for increasing customer satisfaction and loyalty, which is stimulating the market growth in the country.
