As businesses grow and evolve, people become more aware of the importance of reducing risks. In the past decades, as highways and road infrastructure have expanded, accidents and associated financial losses have become more common. The costs of vehicle repair and medical care in case of accidents are increasingly burdensome for average households. At the same time, exposure to international practices and risk transfer mechanisms through media and social interactions has played a role in altering people's perception of risks. Moreover, strict enforcement of laws has made vehicle insurance compulsory for several vehicle categories. Together, these factors have pushed individuals and fleet operators to reconsider their approach and proactively insure themselves against unforeseen circumstances. Insurers also recognize changing risk appetites and launch new products tailored to customers' needs as well as different vehicle types. This evolution towards a more prudent approach to managing risks and costs will be a key driver that strengthens insurance demand in the near future.
