Manogna Vangari, insurance analyst at GlobalData, commented: “The Chinese property insurance industry witnessed a growth of 15.9% in 2023 due to higher demand for policies covering NatCat events, growing demand for agriculture insurance, and investments in infrastructure projects. The trend is expected to continue in 2024, which will support property insurance growth.”

China is the largest agricultural-producing country in the world. Agricultural insurance is the largest product within the property insurance segment and is estimated to grow by 15.3% in 2024. The growth in agriculture insurance will be supported by an increased frequency of extreme climate conditions such as heat waves and heavy rains in the country.

In May 2023, the Insurance Association of China issued new standards to unify the online operation of agricultural insurance underwriting and settlement. The implementation of new guidelines will help local regulatory agencies and insurance institutions with faster underwriting and claim settlements and improve the overall management of agricultural insurance.

Vangari added: “Regulatory reforms aimed at streamlining online operations and improving the actuarial system of agriculture insurance will help in increasing agriculture insurance uptake and support the growth of property insurance.”
