Published

on

DUBLIN, March 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — The “Mobile Phone Insurance Global Market Report 2024” has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

The mobile phone insurance market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $56.56 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.5%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to ongoing innovations in smartphones, the expansion of mid-range and premium device segments, the availability of customized and flexible insurance plans, the surge in e-commerce and online device sales, and the overall trend toward increased digitalization and connectivity. Key trends expected during this period encompass coverage for digital wallets and cybersecurity, flexibility in premium payment models, a focus on sustainability and eco-friendly practices, the integration of artificial intelligence in risk assessment, and the exploration of global expansion opportunities, particularly in emerging markets.

The rising adoption of smartphones is expected to significantly drive the expansion of the mobile phone insurance market in the coming years. Smartphones, portable electronic devices with cellular network connectivity, have become increasingly prevalent. A reliable mobile phone insurance plan offers coverage for necessary repairs or replacements, fueling the growth of the mobile phone insurance market alongside the increasing smartphone adoption. For instance, a report from Uswitch Limited published in 2022 indicated that there were 71.8 million active mobile connections. Projections suggest that by 2025, the UK will have a population of 68.3 million, with 95% of individuals owning smartphones. This surge in smartphone adoption is a key factor propelling the growth trajectory of the mobile phone insurance market.

The rise in phone theft incidents is expected to be a significant driver behind the growth of the mobile phone insurance market in the foreseeable future. Phone theft involves the unlawful acquisition or stealing of someone’s mobile phone or smartphone device. Victims of phone theft often rely on mobile phone insurance to recover from the financial loss incurred due to the stolen device. This insurance coverage extends to replacement or repair costs associated with the stolen phone, providing a practical solution to mitigate the financial impact of theft. For instance, according to data from the London Metropolitan Police in December 2023, there were 90,864 reported phone thefts in 2022, averaging to 249 phones stolen each day. These incidents of phone theft highlight the growing need for mobile phone insurance as individuals seek protection against potential financial losses due to theft. Thus, the escalating frequency of phone theft incidents serves as a driving force behind the growth of the mobile phone insurance market.

Product innovation stands as a prominent trend gaining traction within the mobile phone insurance market. Key companies in this sector are placing a strategic focus on developing novel insurance products to cater to evolving consumer needs. For instance, in May 2023, Switched On Insurance, a UK-based gadget insurance company, introduced a new mobile phone insurance offering. This comprehensive and cost-effective insurance policy is designed to safeguard devices, specifically those under 36 months old. The company’s mobile phone and gadget insurance come with various features, including unlimited claims and a 12-month warranty. The coverage extends to mobile devices while in use, ensuring protection during active use. Additionally, customers have the flexibility to cancel the insurance policy within the cooling-off period, typically set at 14 days. This innovative approach aims to meet consumer demands for comprehensive coverage and flexible policy options within the mobile phone insurance market.

Major companies within the mobile insurance policy market are increasingly adopting a strategic partnership approach to bolster the accessibility of insurance products and address emerging risks associated with customers’ digital lifestyles. 

North America was the largest region in the mobile phone insurance market in 2023. Asia-Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing region in the global mobile phone insurance market during the forecast period.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — The Global Ultrasound Institute (GUSI) is proud to announce the launch of the GUSI Fellowships Platform, an innovative online platform designed to empower learners around the world to achieve confidence and competency in point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS). With a holistic, device-independent approach that includes comprehensive evidence-based education, personalized mentorship from world-class POCUS educators, detailed scan review feedback, quantitative assessments, and CME certification, GUSI is setting a new standard in POCUS education.

“GUSI’s online didactics are the best that I have seen. And what I like most about the fellowship were the 1:1 sessions and being able to interact with GUSI expert faculty who have many years of experience in POCUS. And you get to pick their brains and they get to instruct you 1:1. I have used the training I received from GUSI to do much more POCUS clinically and further impact my patients lives.”

Dr. James Wilcox,
Assistant POCUS Director, Indiana University School of Medicine
Adjunct Professor and Assistant Professor of Medicine

“Our mission at GUSI is to democratize access to high-quality ultrasound training,” said Dr. Kevin Bergman and Dr. Mena Ramos, Co-CEOs of Global Ultrasound Institute. “The GUSI Fellowships Platform enables learners from diverse backgrounds to enhance their skills in a supportive, flexible environment, making it easier than ever to reach their POCUS goals.”

With training options covering 38 different scan types, learners can expect personalized 1:1 mentorship with expert POCUS educators who provide timely feedback on practice scans.

“The GUSI fellowship mentors are the best: patient, kind, knowledgeable, experienced, and supportive. GUSI provided education in the areas I wanted and needed to obtain and in my home/office environment not requiring multiple trips around the country. It is not just the way course work is presented – learning is made easier by the support provided to each student.”

Dr. Glenda Patterson
Core Faculty, University of Arkansas Northwest Internal Medicine Residency
Physician, Veterans Health Care of the Ozarks

GUSI addresses these concerns with flexible scheduling options, allowing learners to progress at their own pace while balancing their professional and personal commitments. This adaptability and virtual experience is crucial for fostering a culture of continuous learning and skill development.

“I went from not being able to hold the probe to someone who can scan and diagnosing and finding pathologies. I worked with Dr. Milne-Price and she was amazing! She sharpened my skills and we did sessions of live scanning over Zoom. I feel confident in my skills now to scan on my own.”

Dr. Dalea Al-Hawarri
Faculty, Bryn Mawr Family Medicine Residency

As healthcare continues to evolve, the demand for proficient ultrasound practitioners has never been greater.
