Thailand Motor Insurance Market Size Summary

The motor insurance market in Thailand is a significant segment within the country's non-life insurance industry, holding a substantial share of the overall market. The sector has shown resilience and is poised for growth, driven by various factors including government initiatives and economic recovery. The Thai government's efforts to develop the insurance sector, alongside rising per capita income, are expected to bolster demand for motor insurance. The market is also witnessing a shift towards electric vehicles (EVs), supported by the government's zero-emission vehicle plan, which is anticipated to drive further growth in motor insurance premiums. This transition is part of a broader strategy to convert the automotive industry from internal combustion engines to electric vehicles, positioning Thailand as a leader in the ASEAN region in this regard.

The competitive landscape of the Thai motor insurance market is semi-consolidated, with major players like Viriyah Insurance, The Falcon Insurance Public Company Limited, AIG Insurance (Thailand) Public Company Limited, FWD General Insurance Public Company Limited, and Allianz Ayudhya Assurance Public Company Limited holding significant market shares. Technological advancements and service innovations are enabling both local and international companies to expand their market presence. Notably, Roojai, an online insurance company, has experienced remarkable growth through product diversity and strong customer service. However, the market also faces challenges, as evidenced by the suspension of Falcon Insurance's license due to operational irregularities. Overall, the market is expected to continue its upward trajectory, supported by economic growth and strategic industry shifts.
