Recently, there has been a surge of interest, activity, and investment in new InsurTech ventures that address P&C commercial lines. When added to the commercial lines InsurTechs that have been quietly growing over the past couple of years, the result is around 400 startups worldwide that are relevant for commercial.  

SMA’s new research report, InsurTech and Commercial Lines: A Surge of Activity and New Implications, is based on SMA’s ongoing tracking, analysis, and advisory work with InsurTechs and Insurers. InsurTechs are categorized by location (country) and company type (tech, broker, insurer). The startups are also classified and grouped into nine key categories – such as greenfield insurer, distribution disruptor, smart home, etc. Many examples are given for all of the categories.
