The Non-life insurances market in Europe is witnessing a shift in customer preferences towards more comprehensive coverage options and digital insurance solutions.

This trend is being driven by advancements in telematics and IoT technologies, allowing insurers to offer more flexible and cost-effective policies to customers.
Local special circumstances: In countries with high exposure to natural disasters, such as Italy and Spain, there is a growing emphasis on insurance products that provide coverage for damages caused by events like earthquakes, floods, and wildfires. Insurers in these regions are innovating to develop specialized products that address these specific risks and provide financial protection to policyholders.
