With the increase in e-commerce activity, logistics companies are handling a larger volume of shipments, increasing the risk of loss or damage. This makes logistics insurance an essential part of risk management, providing coverage against potential financial losses arising from various incidents that may occur during the transportation of goods.
The use of digital technologies has had a positive impact on the logistics insurance market. Logistics companies have embraced digitization to facilitate the collection and analysis of shipment data, providing valuable insights into potential risks and trends.
This information has enabled logistics insurance companies to develop insurance products and pricing models that are more tailored to the real risks that logistics companies face, leading to accurate and efficient risk management.
Logistics insurers are adopting the latest technologies to improve their service offerings, increase operational efficiency and enhance the customer experience. One of the key technologies that logistics insurance providers are adopting is automation, which involves using software to perform repetitive tasks and streamline processes. This includes automated underwriting and claims processing, which reduces the time and resources needed to manage insurance policies and claims.
The COVID-19 pandemic had a slightly negative impact on the logistics insurance market. The pandemic has created significant uncertainty for logistics companies and insurance companies, making risk assessment and management difficult. This uncertainty has led to insurers being more cautious in underwriting new insurance policies, limiting market growth.
