    Description

    In South Africa, the insurance penetration rate was 16.99 percent in 2017, which was the highest rate in Sub-Saharan Africa. South Africa was followed by Namibia, Lesotho, Mauritius and Zimbabwe, which had insurance penetration rates ranging between four and seven percent. Over half of the countries in the region had a rate of less than one percent.

    What is insurance penetration? Insurance penetration refers to the ratio between the value of premiums written in a particular year in a particular country to the GDP of the respective country. Most countries in Sub-Saharan Africa have lower than average insurance penetration rates, when compared with other parts of the world.

    The future of insurance in Africa This low penetration is due to the fact that the African insurance industry is still in its infancy, premiums are financially out of reach of many people and financial literacy is relatively low. However, African insurers believe that rising education and financial literacy levels, the growth of the black middle class and the increase in the working population will have a large impact in the insurance industry in the region.

    Description

    Rationale: Poor access to care and physician shortage are major barriers to hypertension control in sub-Saharan Africa. Implementation of evidence-based systems-level strategies targeted at these barriers are lacking. Objective: To evaluate the comparative effectiveness of provision of health insurance coverage (HIC) alone versus a nurse-led task-shifting strategy for hypertension control (TASSH) plus HIC on systolic BP reduction among patients with uncontrolled hypertension in Ghana. Methods and Findings: Using a pragmatic cluster-randomized trial, 32 community health centers within Ghana's public healthcare system were randomly assigned to either HIC alone or TASSH+HIC. A total of 757 patients with uncontrolled hypertension were recruited between November 28 2012 and June 11 2014 and followed up to October 7 2016. Both intervention groups received health insurance coverage plus scheduled nurse visits while TASSH+HIC comprised cardiovascular risk assessment; lifestyle counseling, and initiation/titration of antihypertensive medications for 12 months delivered by trained nurses within the healthcare system. The primary outcome was change in systolic BP from baseline to 12 months. Secondary outcomes included lifestyle behaviors and BP control at 12 months; and sustainability of systolic BP reduction at 24 months. Of the 757 patients (389 in HIC and 368 in TASH+HIC groups), 85% had 12 month data available [60% women, mean BP 155.9/89.6]. In intention-to-treat analyses adjusted for clustering, the TASSH+HIC group had a greater SBP reduction (20.4 mmHg; 95% CI -25.2 to -15.6) than the HIC group (16.8 mmHg; 95% CI -19.2 to -15.6) with a statistically significant between-group difference of 3.6 mmHg [95% CI -6.1 to -0.5; p = 0.021]. Blood pressure control improved significantly in both groups (55.2%; 95% CI 50.0 to 60.3 for the TASSH+HIC group versus 49·9; 95% CI 44.9 to 54.9 for the HIC group) with a non-significant between-group difference 5.2% ( 95% CI =-1.8 to 12.4; p=0.29). Similarly, lifestyle behaviors did not change appreciably for both groups. Twenty-one adverse events were reported (9 and 12 in the TASSH+HIC and HIC group respectively). The main study limitation is the lack of cost-effectiveness analysis to determine the additional cost-benefit, if any, of the TASSH+HIC group. Conclusions: Provision of health insurance coverage plus a nurse-led task-shifting strategy was associated with a greater reduction in systolic BP than provision of health insurance coverage alone, among patients with uncontrolled hypertension in Ghana. Future scale up of these systems-level strategies for hypertension control in sub-Saharan Africa requires a cost-benefit analysis.

    By Deployment Insights

    The on-premises segment is estimated to witness significant growth during the forecast period. In the insurance industry, the telematics market is experiencing significant growth, particularly in the use of on-premises telematics solutions. On-premises deployment allows businesses to manage and store data on their own servers, providing real-time insights into driver behavior for risk rating. With the increasing number of connected vehicles on the road, on-premises telematics solutions are becoming essential for meeting connectivity requirements, such as software upgrades and turnaround times. As a result, on-premises services and deployment for global telematics in the insurance sector will continue to be a major segment of the market, offering benefits like increased control and security over data.

    Similarly, telematics and usage-based insurance (UBI) are becoming standard offerings in the vehicle insurance industry, and on-premises deployment enables real-time monitoring of driver behavior. The growing number of IoT-enabled vehicles is expected to boost the demand for on-premises telematics solutions, as they offer the flexibility and control needed to manage the vast amounts of data generated by these vehicles. Furthermore, on-premises solutions can be integrated with surveillance systems, video feeds, and aftermarket solutions, providing a comprehensive view of transportation risks. Cloud-based solutions also have their merits, but on-premises telematics solutions offer businesses the ability to build their own telematics databases and customize their risk rating models.

    What is the Size of Burial Insurance Market?

    The burial insurance market size is forecast to increase by USD 72 billion and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% between 2024 and 2029. The market is experiencing significant growth due to several key factors. The geriatric population is expanding, leading to a rise in demand for burial insurance. Additionally, there is an increasing focus on digitalization in the insurance industry, making it more convenient for consumers to purchase policies online. However, the market is also facing challenges such as misleading advertisements that may misrepresent the true cost and coverage of burial insurance policies. As the population ages and consumers seek out more efficient ways to plan for end-of-life expenses, the market is poised for continued growth. Digitalization is playing a crucial role in making these policies more accessible, but it is essential for insurers to maintain transparency and accuracy in their advertising to build trust and credibility with consumers.

Description

In South Africa, the insurance penetration rate was 16.99 percent in 2017, which was the highest rate in Sub-Saharan Africa. South Africa was followed by Namibia, Lesotho, Mauritius and Zimbabwe, which had insurance penetration rates ranging between four and seven percent. Over half of the countries in the region had a rate of less than one percent.

What is insurance penetration? Insurance penetration refers to the ratio between the value of premiums written in a particular year in a particular country to the GDP of the respective country. Most countries in Sub-Saharan Africa have lower than average insurance penetration rates, when compared with other parts of the world.

The future of insurance in Africa This low penetration is due to the fact that the African insurance industry is still in its infancy, premiums are financially out of reach of many people and financial literacy is relatively low. However, African insurers believe that rising education and financial literacy levels, the growth of the black middle class and the increase in the working population will have a large impact in the insurance industry in the region.
