Some may say, the insurance industry doesn’t move fast - we tend to slightly disagree, as we see the shift in technology capabilities to support the delegated insurance industry is changing right before us. 2024 marks a significant milestone, heralding a new era of technological innovation and strategic advancements.
At VIPR, we are at the forefront of this transformation, leading as thought leaders and innovators in the global market and having served the London Market since 2009, embedding our technology capabilities with almost 50% of Lloyd’s Managing Agents, internal brokers and insurers across multiple global territories. This year, we are witnessing key trends that are not just shaping the insurance market but are setting the stage for a future that is more connected, efficient, and responsive to the needs of business strategies and technology users alike.
The Rise of AI and Machine Learning, but what exactly does it mean in the delegated program space? The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) into the insurance sector is not a new concept, but the depth of its impact in 2024 will see further development in this area. These technologies have transitioned from auxiliary tools to central components in underwriting, risk, premium and claims processes. At VIPR, we've seen firsthand how AI can enhance accuracy, speed up service delivery, and introduce a new level of efficiency in automation processing. By leveraging smart technologies, insurers can now process vast amounts of bordereaux data, identify patterns, and predict outcomes with a precision that was previously unattainable.
