Digital Insurer's Comments
Social, mobile, analytics, cloud, and the Internet of Things are oft written about as driving forces of change in insurance, but it’s the customer-centric (as opposed to policy-centric) business models these tools enable that forms the major story.Retail, consumer goods, financial services (outside of insurance), pick an industry and companies are figuring out new ways to give digital consumers what they want. Digital insurers are likewise customer-driven rather than organisation-driven. They understand the insurer closest to the customer wins.
The megatrends identified in this report define five areas in which digitally-minded insurers need to invest. Strategy, technology and execution in these vectors will help insurers get from where they are to where they need to be.
