Inflation, at 2.7% in Canada in April 2024, and rising interest rates can affect insurance demand and the cost of capital. Downturns and supply chain issues also lead to market contractions and higher premiums. For example, the average cost of home insurance increased by 20% in 2024, and insurance premium hikes in 2024 are around 15-25% in some states. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"tbl_prdct orange_head blur_tbl\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMetric\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eData\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUS GDP Growth (2024 Proj.)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.1%\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCanada Inflation (April 2024)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.7%\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHome Insurance Cost Increase (2024)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20%\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cbutton class=\"get_full_prdct_green\" onclick=\"get_full()\"\u003e\u003c\/button\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"container_new_design\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"text-section text-1_new_design\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"frst_big_letter_heading\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"frst_big_letter_letter green\"\u003eS\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"frst_big_letter_text\"\u003eociological factors\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sub-highlight-wrapper orange\"\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"sub-highlight-box\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sub-highlight-icon\"\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"\/cdn\/shop\/files\/PESTLE-Content-Social-Box-Icon-Color-1.svg\" alt=\"Icon\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eChanging Customer Expectations and Trust\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sub-highlight-content\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCustomer expectations are shifting towards digital and personalized services.
