Insurance: The Dispersion of Policies, a Blind Spot in Wealth Management
In a context of widespread premium increases, the insurance management of French households is becoming paradoxical. Households are increasing the number of contracts, while gradually losing overall control of their coverage and budget.
A Stated Commitment, but Declining Clarity
According to an Ipsos study conducted for Giva, 63% of French people claim to manage their insurance very seriously. However, this sense of control hides a more complex reality. The number of offerings has increased, options have piled up, and contracts automatically renew, making the overall understanding increasingly difficult. In this context, 13% of French people admit to paying little or no attention to it, despite the growing importance of this expense category.
A Fragmented and Poorly Managed Portfolio
The dispersion of contracts emerges as the main factor leading to a loss of visibility. Only 40% of households centralize their insurance policies with a single provider, while 57% distribute them among two, three, or more insurers. This fragmentation complicates the comparison of coverage, encourages duplications, and sometimes reveals areas with no coverage.
The direct impact on budget management is evident: 15% of French people admit they do not know how much they spend annually on insurance. In a context where premiums are rising between 4% and 10%, this lack of awareness becomes a real financial issue. Gaining a consolidated view of these contracts is no longer a convenience but an essential requirement to sustainably optimize household protection and budgets.
