In order to reduce costs and increase operational efficiency, many insurance companies are outsourcing back-
18、office processing tasks to offshore companies. The nature of outsourcing is such that switching would interrupt operations therefore incurring significant costs. Finally, it is important for insurance companies to retain suitably qualified employees, with actuarial, investment, law and similar skill
19、s. These are quite specialized, and can attract high salaries. Overall supplier power is assessed as strong within the US insurance market.

20、nts Figure 7: Factors influencing the likelihood of new entrants in the insurance market in the United States, 2009 Source: Datamonitor D A T A M O N I T O R As insurance companies in the US are regulated at a state level, few companies offer their services throughout the country, this can pose a pr
21、oblem or new entrants who will need to ensure they meet separate requirements of each state. Government regulation of the sector is fairly high but varies regionally as regulation is state based. However, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) are striving towards uniformity in r
22、egulation. Regulation in the US is carried out at state level with each state having its own insurance regulator. The impending Dodd-Frank Bill will, according to the NAIC, maintain the status quo in this regard. Entry to the market as a well developed insurance company is capital intensive and play
23、ers need to ensure some level of integration if entry to the market is to be a success. Weak market growth reduces opportunities for new entrants. However, there is little differentiation in the products provided by companies. Lack of diversity places new entrants in a weak position. Additionally, i
24、n order to compete with larger established companies, new entrants must invest large funds into advertising and marketing campaigns as well as perform extensive research on the market. Overall the threat from new entrants to the market is considered as moderate. FIVE FORCES ANALYSIS United States -

26、stitutes to insurance. Due to regulation in most countries, certain forms of insurance are compulsory, such as motor insurance. This essentially means that the threat to the market is reduced. Cheaper alternatives have evolved which allow the buyer to protect family members and assets such as a will
27、, or by setting aside money to compensate for any future loss. Unfortunately, savings can not always provide protection the way insurance can, thus the benefits of this option are reduced. Overall the threat of substitutes to the US insurance market is weak. FIVE FORCES ANALYSIS United States - Insu

29、alized and regional players as opposed to national conglomerates which increases rivalry. There is little differentiation in the services offered by insurance companies which serves to intensify rivalry. Many companies have sole business interests exclusively in the insurance market, dependency inte
30、nsifies competition. Although the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999, opened up the floodgates for banks to offer insurance, thus increasing the opportunities for new players in the market and increasing rivalry. Entry barriers, though not insignificant, are lower than exit barriers. The weak growth in
31、this market serves to increase rivalry which remains high overall. LEADING COMPANIES United States - Insurance 0072 - 2087 - 2009 Datamonitor.
