The income protection and critical illness insurance markets continued to grow in 2016. Their year-on-year percentage growth outstripped the total protection market, highlighting a growing market for illness-and injury-oriented products. However, together they still only account for less than 10% of the total protection market in terms of contracts and premiums. Protection products remain complex, and are still sold and not bought, making advisors key to distribution. Income protection in particular is highly reliant on advisors, and this is not likely to change soon. Meanwhile, individuals are beginning to purchase critical illness insurance independently online without advice, although advisors will remain key. To maintain market growth, providers and advisors must continue to build consumer engagement with these products.
