LONDON, June 07, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- According to The Business Research Company’s research report on the life and health reinsurance market, the rising demand for insurance due to the COVID-19 situation is expected to positively impact the life and health reinsurance market. Due to an increase in health concerns and to further boost their healthcare shields against any serious illness such as COVID-19, policyholders have been increasingly investing in life insurance. People are increasingly panic-buying health and life insurance policies as they become more aware of how deadly the virus can be. According to the CEO and co-founder of Policygenius, an online marketplace for life insurance, Google search traffic for "life insurance" in the USA jumped 50% between March and May 2020 when compared to the previous year. Northwestern Mutual, one of the largest sellers of life insurance in the USA, saw a 15% increase in the number of life insurance policies it sold between April and September when compared to the previous year. This increase was also seen in emerging countries such as India, where market participants confirmed that sales of term plans had increased by around 30–40% in the first quarter of 2020 when compared to the previous year. The demand for life and health insurance is expected to increase post COVID-19, and this will drive the market in the forecast period.
