This report starts by defining the market overview covering market segmentation, major dynamics and estimated market size and forecast. It depicts the estimated size of the pet insurance market in U.K. from 2012 to 2022. During this period, the study also provides historical data along with current and future growth standing of the market.

Pet insurance has been around since the 1950s but it hasn't changed much for many years. Pet insurance is designed to cover medical expenses if the insured pet becomes ill or is injured in an accident. There are over 16 million cats and dogs in the U.K. and the average pet claim is over £750. Also, there are about three-fifths of dog owners and two-fifths of cat owners have pet insurance. The research examines that sharp rise in average premiums has counteracted slow subscriber growth in 2016. The fall in subscriber growth shows that there are challenges to overcome in pet insurance. However, most pet owners don't have insurance, so there are plenty of opportunities to expand the market.

Later, while estimating the market size the analysts finds that policyholders face pressure from rising average premiums and inflation. Multi-pet policies have fallen in popularity, while dog policies account for three quarter of pet insurance GWP. As long as premiums can be kept at a reasonable level, and the benefits of policies are effectively marketed, pet owners' liking for their animals will mean pet insurance continues to grow into the future. The report highlights some of the major market market drivers contributing towards market growth such increased spending on pets, average pet claim and tax rises put further pressure on premiums.
