Throughout the insurance sector, 2019 was a year of challenges and opportunities and 2020 is promising to be more of the same. Recapping the key moves within the broking sector that occurred throughout the year, Ailsa King (pictured), chief client officer, UK & Ireland at Marsh outlined to Insurance Business how 2019 was a year of tremendous change and opportunity for the broker, with the acquisition and integration of JLT. Turning her attention to the wider broking sector, King stated that 2019 was a year of consolidation and disruption which was not just created by the acquisition of JLT. New players emerged, she said, and technological advancements continued to present both challenges and opportunities for brokers.
