The same canvas tests the resources, activities and partnerships needed to deliver the proposition, including relationships with insurers that provide product inventory and underwriting capacity.

Rivalry considers the battle for customer attention, trust and insurer relationships. Supplier power is relevant because insurers control underwriting capacity, product terms and much of the available product supply. Buyer power considers customers' ability to compare protection choices and switch channels. The analysis also reviews the threat of new entrants and substitutes, including insurer-direct routes, traditional intermediaries or other ways consumers may meet insurance-advice and protection needs.

Product considers how protection offerings, selection support and service experience may be presented to different customer needs. Price examines the customer-facing premium and value discussion while recognising that underwriting and product terms originate with insurers. Place looks at the digital routes and partner-enabled pathways through which customers discover, compare and obtain coverage.

Opportunities and threats are external, such as changing customer needs, channel shifts, competitive pressure or regulatory expectations.
