The health insurance market in Poland reflects global trends – such as the rising awareness of personal health impact on quality of life. As a consequence, the health insurance market has seen substantial growth during the last years, which is forecasted to continue at over 20 percent more than life or P&C insurance globally. However, private health insurance has not yet unlocked its full potential.

Since 1999, health care costs have been growing faster than national income. This rapid growth has occurred as the ability of private and public purchasers to reduce service utilization and bargain for lower prices has fallen, insurers have recouped lost profits through higher premiums, and new technologies have driven up costs throughout the sector. Private insurance market responses to these rising costs may lead to reductions in the number of people with insurance and to increased fragmentation of the insurance market. Over time, technological change in medicine both increases costs and improves the quality of care. The challenge for public policy is to maintain insurance and some degree of equity in the face of these rising costs.

In the center of contradictions and risks, as well as structural changes in the socio-economic system of the country due to the spread of COVID-19, the development of the insurance market will depend on its adaptation to environmental variability, ability to carry out permanent institutional and organizational transformation, optimization of business processes and introduction of innovative insurance products and services. The purpose of the paper is to develop new approaches to substantiate the dominance of the insurance market in a pandemic conditions and to outline prospects for its progress. The problems of functioning of the insurance services market in the conditions of realization of risks as a result of coronary crisis are considered, which is confirmed by the data on the dynamics of unprofitability of insurance products and refusals to pay insurance indemnity. The parameters of uncertainty of the quality of insurance services are identified, the trends of functioning are tracked, the threats for the parties during the performance of the insurance service are determined. This has greatly simplified the methodology for assessing quality in “regression selection”. Losses from business interruptions caused by the spread of COVID-19 are not covered by standard insurance contracts. In addition, pandemics are an extreme type of risk. Insurers generally clearly prescribe a pandemic as an exception, therefore do not intend to cover them with insurance policies, which provides protection against business interruption and do not include a premium for them in the policy value, without forming reserves for their coverage. It is substantiated that one of the ways to minimize moral risk and regressive selection of both insurers and policyholders in the context of the spread of COVID-19 is the widespread use of insurance protection and decency, which is inherent in highly developed business. This is especially true for insurance services and financial products, which are difficult to assess directly at the time of purchase.

The article is devoted to the assessment of the processes of concentration and monopolization of the insurance market of Ukraine. The study analyzed the structure of the insurance market by segments, concentration indicators and the Herfindahl-Hirschman index for the market as a whole and for individual types of insurance, gradation of insurance companies by the amount of collected insurance premiums. Based on the assessment, it was determined that the insurance market of Ukraine is generally low concentrated, as well as the sector of risky types of insurance. Among the selected segments of the insurance market, the most concentrated is the CASCO insurance. In the field of health insurance there is a slightly lower level of concentration and monopolization as in the OTSPVVNTZ segment. The market of classical property insurance is the least concentrated. The life insurance segment is characterized by moderate concentration and monopolization. The most powerful insurance companies in the relevant sectors of the insurance market of Ukraine are outlined. Since 2015, the top three leaders of the life insurance market are PJSC “MetLife”, PJSC “Insurance Group TAS” and PJSC “IC UNIСA LIFE”.

The subject of research in the article is the transformation of labor and labor relations in modern insurance. This transformation is due to the transition to a new technological structure based on digitalization, as well as comprehensive informatization of all aspects of public life. The hypothesis that served as the impetus for writing this article is the provision that modern digitalization, unlike its previous automation and informatization, does not aim at increasing the productivity of human labor, but at completely eliminating a person from the production process. In the course of work on the article, the authors used materials from the largest recruiting agency HeadHunter, and also conducted their own research in the form of a survey of insurance market specialists on the issues of transforming labor relations and the demand for new competencies. As a result, it is shown that significant transformations occur both in the content of labor processes and in the competencies that employees should possess. The changes that are taking place impose new requirements on the quality of human capital, a new paradigm of human capital management is being approved, in which the employee is considered not only as an object, but also as an independent subject of management. The transformation of the basic factors (economic, technological, social) of labor relations in insurance is considered.

Insurance plays a stabilizing role in economic development, so it is an important financial area in an era of new challenges and threats. This leads to increased attention to insurance in general and the introduction of innovations in such an important area as liability insurance. The specific features of this industry require the development of important recommendations for improving the compulsory civil liability insurance of owners of motor vehicles (CCLIOMV) in Ukraine. The methodology and methods of work involve the use of a systematic approach, analysis, comparison, forecasting in the development of improved regulation of the liability insurance market. The condition for the successful functioning of the insurance market in Ukraine is a decent level of quality of insurance services based on such innovations in car insurance as telematics, namely Usage-based insurance (UBI), is a special program that allows discounts to drivers by tracking their mileage. Another new vector is mobile technology, which allows you to remotely control devices, develop the implementation and maintenance of insurance services with their help. The methods of encouraging the use of motor third party liability insurance services, as well as the approximation of the existing system CCLIOMV to European standards is the use of a bonus-malus – a correction factor for the size of the insurance premium. The need and effectiveness of the introduction of an electronic policy is the ability to independently choose a reliable insurer, provide a guarantee of the acquisition of legitimate insurance protection, the introduction of non-cash using Internet acquiring technology forms of payment for insurance services and more. The scientific research carried out in the work allowed to determine the forecast indicators of the introduced innovations in the insurance market. The results of calculations of the forecast model on the dynamics of sales of electronic policies CCLIOMV in Ukraine show that their volume is constantly growing and in 2022 will amount to about 7 million units. This allows us to forecast the coverage of electronic policies CCLIOMV up to 70% of all vehicles in Ukraine.

The Ukrainian insurance market shows an increase in quantitative indicators of activity, but the functional and institutional characteristics do not meet modern requirements. Now the insurance market of Ukraine is undergoing important regulatory changes, as a result of which the NBU is beginning to regulate the work of insurers, which gives hope for increasing the quality of activity of insurance market participants. Modern financial technologies have transformed the insurance market, they include big data, artificial intelligence, blockchain, mobile access, which gave impetus to the creation of new insurance products and created opportunities for facilitating clients' access to insurance services.

Reinsurance is a guarantor and catalyst for the development of the insurance market, it increases its capacity and financial security. The aim of the article is to study the current trends of reinsurance in Ukraine, identify the main problems in their implementation and formulate appropriate areas for their solution. The works of domestic and foreign scientists in the field of reinsurance have become a theoretical and informational basis for writing the article. This study was conducted by implementing methods of analysis and synthesis, theoretical generalization, comparative analysis, statistical and graphical methods. There is no single approach among Ukrainian reinsurance researchers regarding the use of basic reinsurance terms. It is important to use the correct reinsurance terminology, which is clearly defined in Ukrainian legislation, distinguishing between the concepts of "actions of the primary reinsurer" and "actions of the reinsurer" in reinsurance. At present, domestic insurers mostly reinsure their risks in "parent companies" or foreign reinsurers, paying almost a third of the reinsurance premiums involved. Ukrainian reinsurance is characterized by the fact that reinsurance premiums are paid mainly to resident reinsurers, while the majority of insurance payments are made by non-resident reinsurers. Domestic insurers are reinsuring the risks of primary non-resident insurers, but this activity is not yet so successful. A potential direction for the further development of reinsurance in Ukraine is the creation by the state, or with its participation, of a national reinsurance company or a Ukrainian reinsurance pool using modern financial products and technological innovations. As a result of the transfer of powers to supervise the activities of insurers to the NBU, we can expect effective changes in the legislative provision of insurance and reinsurance activities based on world experience, implementation of Solvency II and improving the quality of insurance and reinsurance activities by insurance market participants
