The term “social inflation” has been gaining traction in the insurance industry due to its significant impact on claim costs and premiums. Unlike standard inflation driven by economic factors, social inflation refers to the rising costs of insurance claims influenced by societal and legal trends. For independent insurance agencies, understanding this concept is crucial to helping clients manage their insurance needs effectively while remaining competitive in a shifting market. At its core, social inflation is fueled by factors such as increased litigation, larger jury awards, changing legal standards, and shifts in public attitudes. These elements drive up claim costs, forcing insurers to adjust premiums to cover the escalating expenses.
