Entertainment insurance provides the policyholder with coverage against various risks, such as general liability, legal costs, and damage, to expensive cameras and equipment. Therefore, these are some of the major factors which will propel market growth.
Opportunity: High adoption of costly equipment by the entertainment industry
As the entertainment business expands, movie directors and producers strive to provide their audiences with the best cinematic experience possible. Nowadays, movies are made with a lot of VFX and special effects, which cost a lot of money and need the use of innovative technology. The use of cameras for shooting movies and music videos has evolved, and with time, the quality of the movies is improving based on the type of camera used, and technology for VFX and special effects is being implemented to further enhance the experience. However, the cost of using such high-tech cameras and VFX is prohibitively expensive, necessitating the purchase of entertainment insurance to protect them from damage. As a result of technological advancements and the use of expensive equipment for making films and organizing entertainment events, demand for entertainment insurance is expected to grow rapidly in the coming years, providing major lucrative opportunities for the entertainment insurance market growth.
Challenge: Stringent rules and regulations
Stringent rules and regulations related to the entertainment insurance sector are expected to hamper the growth of the market. The entertainment insurance industry is governed by an enormous number of rules and regulations that control the types of coverage available as well as the terms and conditions of insurance policies. While these regulations are intended to protect consumers and ensure the insurance industry's financial stability, they can also create obstacles to entry and limit the growth of the entertainment insurance market. The requirement for insurers to maintain specified reserve funds and meet other stability requirements is one example of a regulation that can impede the growth of the entertainment insurance industry. These criteria might be difficult for smaller insurance businesses to achieve, limiting competition in the market and leading to higher policyholder rates.
Impact of COVID-19 on Global Entertainment Insurance Market
The COVID-19 pandemic had an immense impact on the entertainment industry, which encompasses film and television production, live events, and sports. As a result, the pandemic affected the entertainment insurance market. The pandemic resulted in significant cancellations of film productions and live events, leading the entertainment industry to face significant financial losses. It also influenced the industry's insurance market, as many insurers had to pay out for policies covering cancellations and other losses due to the pandemic. In response to the pandemic, insurers reduced coverage limits and raised prices for entertainment insurance. This made it more difficult for entertainment enterprises to secure the necessary insurance coverage. Hence, the COVID-19 affected the growth of the global entertainment insurance market.
