How insurtech can help us better look out for our pets

There’s no hiding from the fact that we spend a lot of time and money on our pets. And as a nation of animal lovers, many in the UK took what positives they could out of the pandemic lockdowns and got a new pet. In fact, cat and dog ownership in the UK grew by around 63% and 39% respectively since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic – with 3.2 million households acquiring a new pet.

Topics covered:
