DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "2021: Life-Annuity Consumer Markets" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The Covid-19 pandemic has greatly affected the consumer market, with differing market segments being impacted in different ways both in increased mortality and economic disruption. This has created both opportunities and challenges for life-annuity insurers.
The life insurance protection gap has widened to a relatively large amount, $23.4 trillion, which is equivalent to over 60% of the current in force individual life insurance.
All three adult generations saw increased mortality, though most excess mortality for Baby Boomers came from Covid-19, while younger adults (Generation X and Millennials) had excess mortality driven by non-Covid-19 causes, potentially a result of economic pressure on these segments.
Three major cultural markets in the U.S. (Hispanics, African-Americans, and Asian-Americans) saw excess mortality disproportionate to the overall population, with some differences driven by differing geographic impacts. These three segments have long been underinsured compared to the rest of the U.S. consumer markets and are key to future insurer growth.
