Most insurers will lose 18 – 24 months

Widening Gap likely for most
Insurers
• Already laggards
• Focus on ‘keeping the lights on’
• Curtailment of ‘discretionary spend’
• Failure to re-set strategically
• All resulting in increased
vulnerability to competitors and new
entrants
Consumer TP was expected 2022
Consumer TP now expected 2020
Insurers need to accelerate digital plans by 2 years to simply “stay still”
