Future of Insurance: 2030

Technology is enabling business capabilities for the insurance industry that before were not possible. EY has developed a set of predictions for insurance 2030, driven by the emerging InsurTechs, addressing areas including 1) The radiation of insurance into other industries such as automotive, fast food and commercial real estate, 2) The opportunity and threat for carriers associated with the formation of partner ecosystems to provide more holistic protection for customers across P&C personal and commercial lines, Life, Benefits and more, 3) The ability to provide a single premium price across multiple insurance products, 4) the need to re-price insurance risk every 10 seconds, 5) How carriers can become drivers of truly disruptive innovation, and 6) The structural shift required by both carriers and technology companies to be able to consume/produce micro-functions on demand to support the business.

Unlocking Transformation for Auto and Homeowners Insurance

Shifting demographics, increasing digital expectations, and rising competitive forces are transforming personal insurance. Using more data up front brings decision points forward in the workflow for better control of your underwriting and a great buying experience. In this presentation, we will showcase LightSpeed® for personal lines, which offers the potential for significant improvements in a wide range of processes such as bindable quotes in two minutes or less with just a name, address, and birthdate.

Having It All: Eliminating the Trade-offs Between Improving CX, OPEX, and EX


You can transform your customer experience while both reducing operating costs and improving employee engagement. And in a world of advancing consumer expectations, industry disruption, and The Great Resignation, this is a “must do” versus a “nice to have”. Let’s talk about how to avoid the temptation of doubling down only on customer experience while letting chips fall where they may from an employee experience and operating cost perspective.

Cyber Risk Claims – What You Need to Know BEFORE You Suffer a Cyber Breach


  • Policy – making sure that the stand along cyber is endorsed to be primary over other cyber coverages automatically available with some package, crime and other policies
  • Contractual risk transfer – review contracts to ensure that your coverage coincides with your contractual obligations; Make sure that the risk transfer is working in the right direction; Make sure policy endorsements include carve back for insd vs. insd
  • Cyber event occurs – call hotline, get privacy counsel assigned immediately to establish confidentiality; be mindful of policy obligations: pre-approved breach counsel, IT forensics; PR firms; Notice to other insurers – make sure cyber standalone takes the lead
  • Engage your broker – use broker as conduit between all carriers to ensure that claim is paid as the coverage was intended and negotiated
  • Make sure that any contractual obligations are met – additional insured; indemnification; etc.
