Artificial Intelligence – Welcome Opportunity or Inescapable Challenge for Insurers?

November 15, 2019

The proliferation of big data and artificial intelligence (AI) impacts practically every human enterprise and endeavor. The insurance industry is certainly no different, having historically thrived on developments in data, data analytics, AI and other information technologies. Insurance companies are taking advantage of the digital transformation to automate claims management processes, improve operational efficiencies, and increase the quality of service they deliver to customers with personalized marketing and recommendations. The ongoing race to conquer volumes of heterogeneous data and wring every bit of informational value out of raw intelligence will mean growing opportunities and inevitable challenges for insurers, the insured and most participants in the insurance sector.

It would be natural to think of this trend as a negative, triggering a universal business-critical challenge. But dig deeper, and a significant opportunity emerges for employers to reassess the way they attract, retain and value their workforce—and for providers to reimagine the products, such as life and group insurance, that enable this. With no obvious end in sight for a trend hallmarked by frequent job changes and the enduring nature of the gig economy, group carriers would do well to think about how they will now adapt to the evolving employee benefits market. – for both active employees and those that are leaving or have left traditional employment.
