š¢ Now available: Q1 2026 Global InsurTech Report The 2026 series of the Gallagher Re InsurTech report is the last in the 'trilogy' of AI-focused reports beginning in 2024. Previously, we explored how AI is shaping the existing landscape ā now, we shift our focus forward to consider longer-term risks and opportunities. In this Q1 edition, we focus on the emerging picture of AI liability insurance and how it fits in with an evolving cyber insurance market, as both fields increasingly coalesce around the risks emanating from digital delegation and tech infrastructure. In addition, the report provides insights into the performance of the InsurTech market for Q1'26. Key findings for Q1 include: š Global InsurTech funding reached USD1.63B in Q1 2026, maintaining momentum from late 2025. š Q4'25 and Q1'26 rank as the highest for global InsurTech funding since late 2022 ā providing further evidence of a return in capital to this space. š A staggering 95% of Q1 funding flowed to AI-focused companies, while InsurTechs relevant to the Q1 theme of AI liability and cyber insurance raised over USD440 million in the quarter. š Average deal sizes climbed to their highest levels in years, with a 23.3% increase quarter-on-quarter, driven by larger, more concentrated investments. š Early-stage funding surged, highlighting continued appetite for innovation ā this includes Q'26 seeing only the sixth early-stage InsurTech on record to raise a USD100m+ mega-round. This quarter's activity demonstrates that InsurTech investment remains resilient, signaling renewed confidence in the sector and a clear shift toward AI-driven innovation.
