2022 U.S. Transportation Market Outlook

From our friends over at Risk Placement Services (RPSIns.com)



Insights into the current state and future state of the U.S. Transportation insurance market

The transportation industry has bounced back from the thick of its COVID-19 challenges, but trying times persist. While demand for transportation services is strong, insurance costs are increasing, driver shortages remain, and claims are on the rise. In addition, the claims backlog and inflationary costs of repair/replacement are putting more pressure on the transportation firms themselves to manage their losses or run the risk of a non-renewal from their current carrier.

Despite several headwinds that persist in the industry, RPS remains very bullish on the opportunities for transportation operators and insurance providers alike. "Trucking and transportation have always been the lifeblood of America's economy, and we still foresee growth and opportunity continuing into 2023," says Mark Gallagher, vice president, National Transportation practice leader for RPS.
