LONDON: C-level summits focusing on convergence of insurance and technology to return to London, Chicago, Toronto and Amsterdam in 2020, Insurance Nexus have just announced.

Statistical and anecdotal evidence suggest the global insurance industry is in an unparalleled state of flux; new technology has entered the market at the same time as a focus on customer-centricity has pervaded virtually every industry. Accordingly, 96% of 500 respondents to a recent Insurance Nexus survey agreed that “carri

The ability to accurately discern the past and predict the future based on nothing but data points and the experience of actuaries and adjusters has served the industry well up to now. Insurance is, after all, a multi-billion-dollar, truly global industry. While this remains the case, the landscape is now radically different to the past, thanks in part to the advent of the Internet of Things (IoT). The use of these technologies that collect, record and transmit live data has proliferated exponen

The problem for cyber security in the life insurance sector is very severe, as is the case in other sectors such as banking, healthcare, etc. The insurance industry has a huge amount of client data and clients have a lot of confidence in the organizations with whom they do business.

What is insurance fraud detection?

There are 12 categories of awards, recognizing teams and leaders from across customer, claims and innovation units, as well as from product, business, brokering and leadership positions. The ‘North American Business Transformation of the Year’ category recognizes an organization who has significantly transformed how their business operates over the past three years and are seeing tangible benefits from this transformation. The judges were tasked with identifying the greatest impacts from technol

To some, it is magic. To insurance, it is reality. The ability to accurately discern the past and predict the future based on nothing but data points and the long-lived experience of actuaries and adjusters has served the industry well up to now, allowing insurance to become the multi-billion-dollar industry it is today. The past few years, however, have witnessed in a dramatic shift to this picture, prompted by the advent of the Internet of Things: technologies that collect, record and transmit

CHICAGO: Insurance Nexus webinar to explore how insurance carriers can collaborate with brokers and clients to build customer-centric cyber insurance policies, July 30^th, 11am ET

Cyber-crime is not new, but as the methods of nefarious actors have become more sophisticated, the defensive capabilities of organizations have failed to keep pace. Cyber-attacks on organizations show no signs of abating, they are becoming increasingly indiscriminate in their targeting, with small and medium sized firms

From day-to-day operations, to the very relationship between insurers and policyholders, it is no exaggeration to say that Artificial Intelligence (AI) represents the biggest potential for transformation that insurance has witnessed since the invention of the computer, even changing the very nature of the insurer-customer relationship. Insurance Nexus held a series of interviews with Canadian Insurance executives and thought leaders, to understand how they are preparing for the AI-dominated futu

The recent and rapid growth in cyber-crime is proving something of a double-edged sword for insurance carriers; opportunities for coverage are expanding rapidly, with PWC predicting the cyber market to grow to $7.5 billion by the end of the decade, up from $2.5 billion in 2018. With the sector in its formative years and not all consumers convinced of the need for cyber coverage, most carriers are competing by offering expanding cyber coverage without charging additional premiums, at significant

To win the customer’s heart, insurers cannot afford to lag behind on customer-focused innovation. Throughout the claims journey they must deliver interactive, personalised experiences. Whilst there are many barriers to implementing AI and analytics effectively to drive results across customer service and claims, it is essential for winning and retaining customers in the future.

Insurance Nexus is hosting a live webinar on the 26^th June which poses fundamental questions to two leading insurers on

The report, The Future of Customer-Led, Technology-Driven Claims, explores how advances in technology, from artificial intelligence to drones and mobile communications methods, are enablin

Much discussed, yet often misunderstood, it’s clear that Artificial Intelligence is set to dominate the global Insurance sector for the foreseeable future – and Canada is no different. Despite being a somewhat nascent discipline within insurance, progress in silicon centres across the nation mean carriers recognize the potential of AI to cut costs, improve the customer experience and generate sustainable long-term growth.

With new technologies enabling both operational efficiency and a superior customer experience, from artificial intelligence to drones and mobile customer communication methods, it is a critical time for claims executives to explore opportunities to innovate their processes. A recent survey of over 600 insurance executives found that three technologies will principally ‘transform’ claims over the next 2-5 years: automation (75.4%), artificial intelligence and machine learning (70.8%) and image an

The competition between European insurers has never been greater. As impactful technology becomes cheaper to access and more widely available, insurers must meet customer needs and demands now, or lose their customers forever; outdated products, inefficient processes and poor customer service are no longer acceptable.

As insurance’s ‘moment of truth’, the claims process is a critical priority for insurers. Although complex, condensing ease of access, transparency, speed and quality customer servi
