5. Technology makes lifestyle-
integrated interactions possible
• Traditional Insurance Business has long depended on
two customer touchpoints: at the time of sale and at
the time of claim.
• As the customers get increasingly connected, the
current data void between these two customer
touchpoints is about to be filled.
• Insurance firms are embracing connected technologies
to offer personalized and dynamic insurance premiums
to their customers.
Data rich but Information poor
6. Machine learning for
insurance pricing
optimization
• Big data, analytics and other tools employed by
insurers can unlock powerful insights that can be
used to understand the customers better and
provide the appropriate connections within the
connected ecosystem.
• That information generated or gathered can then be
used to improve underwriting decisions and
improve pricing for targeted customer segments, as
opposed to one, the blended generic rate for all.
7. InsurTech – AI, IoT, and Big Data Analysis
Visualize that you get into a self-driving car of the future. The car’s
open-up monitor issues an alert:
“I sense that you’ve been drinking. I apparently don’t need your driving
assistance, but there’s always a small chance I may, in the case of an
emergency. If you want to navigate this car under the influence of
alcohol, your insurance rate for the next 6 hours, or until you arrive at
your destination, will increase to $2 per hour.“
to accept this increase in your insurance.

8. Challenges
1. Insurers are working with separated information silos of brokers,
agents, underwriters and loss adjusters.
2. Insurers are increasingly under tension from new business entrants
who have none of those legacy problems and can afford to play on
a cost basis.
3. In this agile industry, true differentiation lies in delivering value and
unique experience (connects staff, agents, and brokers with the
resources they need) to puts the client at the center.
