Insurance Innovation Outlook 2019

Constraints cause creativity. Covid created the need to handle property claims remotely. The technology and uses of devices to assess damage and settle claims has proliferated in the last 24 months. To support the launch of the InsTech London report, “Remote Claims Assessment - the 40 companies to watch”, Matthew Grant hosted a Live Chat to discuss the findings in our report. We spoke to the creators and users of these solutions, examine what is happening in this area, discuss the opportunities emerging from new technologies and the future themes in remote claims assessment.

Electronic signature adoption is growing among Canadian insurance companies, driven in large part by consumer's expectations for convenient, personalized and efficient service. While the benefits of straight through processing are obvious, questions often still arise regarding the legal requirements and implications of bringing processes online.

Cyber-crime is not new, but as the methods of nefarious actors have become more sophisticated, the defensive capabilities of organizations have failed to keep pace. Cyber-attacks on organizations show no signs of abating, they are becoming increasingly indiscriminate in their targeting, with small and medium sized firms now as vulnerable as their larger counterparts. A recent report by Hiscox brings the scale of the problem into sharp relief as according to the study, cyber-attacks against organizations have surged from 38% to 53% in the last 12 months. Despite this surge, however, recent figures show that 68% of North American businesses have yet to purchase any form of cyber insurance.
