Q4 2021
In 2020, and Q1 of 2021, we saw aggressive price increases following a few years of loss-making results, with aviation insurers under pressure from capital providers to return to profit. However, new market entrants, increased appetite from existing insurers and the downturn in exposures due to COVID-19 has made these price increases difficult to justify, and has increased competition for desirable business.
There have been fewer losses during reduced period of activity which has assisted with drive towards profitability, but upwards pressure on pricing remains, albeit at smaller levels. Furthermore some sectors within aviation, where there is a greater perceived exposure or claims activity, are still seeing higher increases.
