By Age Group Insights:
The over-60 age group held the largest revenue share in 2024 for funeral insurance, driven by their growing awareness of mortality and the need for financial planning for end-of-life arrangements. This demographic focuses on securing their financial future and easing the emotional and financial stress on their families. They seek personalized guidance and detailed information when looking at funeral insurance options. Meanwhile, the over-50 segment is predicted to grow rapidly from 2025 to 2034, as these individuals become more aware of funeral costs and wish to ensure peace of mind for themselves and their families. They prefer insurance policies that offer extensive coverage, including burial arrangements and grief support.

By Distribution Channel Insights:
In 2024, the direct-to-customer segment also captured a significant share of revenue. This model allows insurers to sell directly to consumers, cutting out intermediaries like brokers, which leads to better transparency and pricing. Digital platforms have made it easier for consumers to research and buy funeral insurance online, appealing to their need for convenience and accessibility. Funeral homes play a vital role by providing essential support for funerals and offering tailored insurance products. Their established client relationships allow them to present insurance options sensitively, guiding families in choosing coverage that fits their needs and finances. This personalized service improves customer satisfaction and helps clients feel more secure during difficult times.

The funeral insurance market in Spain has also experienced notable growth, fueled by an aging demographic that has escalated the demand for pre-need funeral services and insurance products. With increasing life expectancy, more individuals are pursuing financial solutions to mitigate the impact of funeral expenses on their families. This demographic transition has fostered a greater awareness of the necessity for planning for end-of-life costs, leading to a rise in funeral insurance policies that address various needs and preferences.
