The UK SME insurance market was estimated to be worth 6.4bn in GWP in 2016, after falling from 7.0bn in 2015. The sharp fall in 2016 was caused by reduced average insurance spend across all sizes of SMEs, which outweighed the slight increase in companies registered in these categories. The impact of trends in the five to nine employee group of SMEs was particularly significant, as it has both high insurance penetration (94.2%) and a high volume of businesses, meaning a decline in spending reported through our 2017 SME Insurance Survey had a major impact on the overall size of the market.

Scope
