Property Claim Trend Analysis Highlights Influential Factors Impacting Property Insurance Settlements
The global AI insurance claims processing market is on an upward trajectory, with the market reaching $514 million in 2024 and projected to reach a staggering $2.7 billion by 2034. This transformation is set to revolutionize everything from risk assessment to remote adjusting, according to a recent report.
The report, titled the Sedgwick Loss Adjusting Insights Report, delves into trends shaping commercial and residential property claims in 2025. It explores the impact of various factors on the property claims landscape, including global trade policies, climate-driven catastrophes, tariffs, labor shortages, artificial intelligence, and shifting customer expectations.
One of the major pressure points for the insurance industry is the increasing frequency and cost of severe global weather events. In 2024, worldwide damages from weather-related events amounted to a staggering $368 billion. The report highlights climate change as a significant factor shaping the property claims landscape, making wildfires, such as the L.A. wildfires in January, more likely. The Santa Ana winds overlapping with the dry season is a key factor in fires in California this year, according to the report.
Billion-dollar catastrophes are becoming more common, making risk management difficult for insurers, leading to higher premiums and reduced coverage options. The increased cost of building a single-family home due to tariffs is estimated to be between $7,500 and $10,000. Tariffs on Canadian and Mexican goods have the potential to raise U.S. construction material costs by more than $3 billion. The report warns of new challenges and uncertainties for the construction industry due to tariffs and restrictive immigration policies.
The report also emphasizes the transformative potential of AI, machine learning, and other technologies in the insurance industry. By embracing these technologies, insurance companies are paving the way for a more responsive, accurate, and personalized approach to insurance services. The report suggests steps for carriers, contractors, brokers, and claims professionals to adapt to a changing market.
The first Jahresbericht Loss Adjusting Insights Report was published by Loss Adjusting Insights, but the exact individual or organization who issued the inaugural report and the specific publication date are not identified in the available search results. Despite this, the report serves as a valuable resource for those seeking to navigate the evolving insurance landscape.
As the industry adapts to these changes, it is clear that AI and other technologies will play a crucial role in shaping the future of insurance claims processing. The report underscores the need for companies to embrace these technologies to remain competitive and provide the best possible service to their customers.
