Insurance Third Party Administrator Market Drivers, Challenges, Future Outlook and Opportunities:

In terms of revenue, North America dominated the insurance third-party administrator market share, followed by APAC and Europe. The insurance third-party administrator market in North America is subsegmented into the US, Canada, and Mexico. The US is anticipated to hold the largest market share in the region in 2031. In the US, there are three main insurance sectors: property/casualty (P/C), i.e., mainly auto, home, and commercial insurance; life/annuity, mainly life insurance and annuity products; and private health insurance. Such a vast industry generates the demand for third-party administrator services in the country. The third-party administrators in the country are engaged in various strategies to reach more customers. For example, in January 2024, Rokstone, a specialty insurance and reinsurance managing general agency and a part of the Aventum Group, launched a new third-party administrator service based in Kentucky. Rokstone’s new Verus TPA manages Rokstone’s agricultural claims in the US.

As countries grow and people gain more discretionary income, they are more likely to be able to afford and recognize the value of insurance products such as life, health, and property insurance plans. This is especially true for a burgeoning middle class striving for financial stability. People are becoming increasingly conscious of the possibility of financial loss due to unforeseen circumstances such as illness, accidents, or natural catastrophes. As a result, individuals, businesses, and other entities seek insurance policies to safeguard themselves from the repercussions, which fuels the demand for insurance solutions that can assist in managing these risks. According to the Federal Insurance Office (FIO), the US had 667 licensed L&H insurers, 2,656 P&C insurers, and 1,355 health in 2022. According to the India Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF), the insurance industry is one of the premium segments seeing significant expansion in India. This upward trend in the insurance sector can be ascribed to rising revenues and increased awareness of the profession. India has the sixth-largest life insurance market among emerging economies, growing at a pace of 32–34% per year. In recent years, the industry has experienced vigorous competition among rival businesses. Moreover, the insurance sector faces numerous constraints, including highly dynamic regulatory complications, which present organizations with considerable threats to financial and operational stability. Thus, the ongoing proliferation of the insurance industry is creating opportunities for the growth of the insurance third-party administrator market.

In other industry developments and happenings in the market include:

Quantum Computing Inc. (QCi) (NASDAQ: QUBT), an innovative, integrated photonics and quantum optics technology company, recently announced it received its second purchase order for its thin film lithium niobate (TFLN) photonic chip foundry from the University of Texas at Austin. The order will support the research efforts of the University’s RF Acoustic Microsystem Group and is part of the QCi Foundry’s pilot launch program, with fulfillment expected in Q1 2025.

The order enables the University to advance chip-scale acoustic and cross-domain microsystems using QCi Foundry’s scalable TFLN processes, supporting a custom fabrication run that highlights TFLN’s versatility for next-generation photonics and micro electromechanical systems.

“This strategic collaboration with the University of Texas at Austin underscores the expanding capabilities and commercial viability of the QCi Foundry, which has been designed to meet the increasing demand for signal processing, sensing, and computing applications as well as advanced acoustic systems for volume deployment,” said Dr. William McGann, CEO at QCi. “We are excited to support the University’s innovative research, and this collaboration further highlights the growing recognition of TFLN as a critical driver in the future of telecom, datacom, and quantum markets.”

Cisco Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: CSCO), a tech infrastructure giant, recently announced at its Quantum Summit 2024 that Cisco researchers are reporting substantial efforts are underway now to develop practical quantum networks and data centers. Cisco’s vision for a quantum data center includes the ability to execute multiple quantum circuits, support dynamic network interconnections, and leverage diverse entanglement generation protocols, according to Reza Nejabati, head of quantum research at Cisco’s advanced development group Outshift, during a presentation at the event.

“It is well known in academic research that quantum computing cannot become useful by monolithically scaling it to 10s of millions of qubits—that is not practical,” said Nejabati. “It seems, at least with the current technology, it is more realistic to build a network of smaller quantum computers. And essentially you develop the notion of the data center—that is we build a network connecting a large number of smaller processors in a controlled environment, the data center warehouse, and provide them as a service to a larger user base. That’s the basic definition of a quantum data center.”

Rigetti Computing, Inc. (NASDAQ: RGTI, RGTIW), a pioneer in full-stack quantum-classical computing, recently announced that it successfully completed sales of $100 million gross proceeds of its common equity offering program. Rigetti immediately followed up by announcing another $100 million registered direct offering, while intending to use the funds generated by the previous fund raising for working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes, including continuing to focus on its strategy as a leader in superconducting quantum computing and continuing to work to improve its 2-qubit gate fidelity and scale towards higher qubit count systems.

“We are pleased to see the enthusiasm for the quantum computing sector and our company,” said Dr. Subodh Kulkarni, CEO of Rigetti. “We are seeing a great deal of interest from national labs and academic institutions for on-premises quantum computers to pursue hands-on R&D. As the technology continues to improve and more quantum applications are developed we expect to see increasingly more interest from industry and the private sector.”

International Business Machines Corporation (IBM) (NYSE: IBM), a computing giant that provides integrated solutions and services worldwide, recently announced quantum hardware and software advancements to execute complex algorithms on IBM quantum computers with record levels of scale, speed, and accuracy.

IBM Quantum Heron, the company’s most advanced quantum processor, can now run certain quantum circuits with up to 5,000 two-qubit gates, nearly doubling its previous capability and completing tasks 50 times faster than last year’s demonstration. Combined with IBM’s enhanced Qiskit software, which leads the industry in performance and reliability, these advancements push the boundaries of quantum computing’s potential in tackling complex scientific challenges.

“Advances across our hardware and Qiskit are enabling our users to build new algorithms in which advanced quantum and classical supercomputing resources can be knit together to combine their respective strengths,” said Jay Gambetta, Vice President, IBM Quantum. “As we advance on our roadmap towards error-corrected quantum systems, the algorithms discovered today across industries will be key to realizing the potential to solve new problems realized through the convergence of QPUs, CPUs, and GPUs.”
