Insurance

The Insurance industry is in flux. Pressure is coming from several directions at once and traditional business models are being fundamentally challenged due to:

• The direct impact of regulation such as RDR, Mifid II and Solvency II

• Turbulent investment markets and capital constraints

• Discontinuous change in distribution methods, including the impact of digital channels

• More informed and proactive consumers looking for self-direction

• A low-trust environment extending across the financial services industry as a whole

As a result, insurance firms are looking at reconfiguring their product, customer and channel mix with major implications for their operating models.
