It's kind of funny because it wouldn't be the first time that insurance companies are a proponent for social change. When Englund abolished slavery, it wasn't initially for moral reasons or changes in modern sensibilities. It was because Lloyd's of London was paying way to much insurance out on runaway slaves and the increasing dangers of pirates hijacking slave ships. They lobbied the government to abolish the practice for that reason.
