I'm always a fan of McKinsey and Digital Transformation topics, but this article rubbed me wrong as it defines a barrier between IT and the Business. I have worked in numerous insurance companies as an advisor and IT is definitely guilty of being "order takers," but its the business that did not want to fund or modernize IT and insurance companies get stuck with old IT stacks and then get compared to an InsureTech companies with zero technology debt. Digital Transformation is led from the top, not the IT department. #mckinseydigital #digitalbusinesstransformation #techtransformation #cioleadership https://lnkd.in/dBjgxxWd

📣 **Insurance Trends in 2024: A Glimpse into the Future** The insurance landscape continues to evolve. Here’s an overview of what the landscape looks like. 🌐 1️⃣ **Prevention over Reaction**: Insurers are shifting their focus from reacting to risks to preventing losses from happening in the first place¹. This customer-centric business model is driving insurers to adopt advanced technology and modify company culture¹. 2️⃣ **Mergers and Acquisitions**: M&A activity has been on a decline since Q2 2022 due to macroeconomic factors. However, as increases in interest rates and inflation ease, pent-up activity may drive an upsurge in deals later in 2023 into 2024¹. 3️⃣ **InsurTechs**: Insurance technology companies (InsurTechs) remain at the forefront of acquisition activity as carriers increasingly look to these capabilities for point solutions across the value chain to power transformation efforts¹. 4️⃣ **Sustainability**: The industry’s role is pivoting to that of a sustainability ambassador, influencing and propelling purpose-driven decisions and strategies of clients across industries¹. 5️⃣ **Digital Transformation**: The insurance industry is no longer predictable. Growth without sacrificing profitability is challenging, climate change is impacting certain risk profiles, and customers expect products tailored just for them². 6️⃣ **Artificial Intelligence**: AI continues to revolutionize the insurance industry, offering new ways to streamline processes, enhance customer service, and improve risk assessment⁴. These trends highlight the dynamic nature of the insurance industry and its capacity to adapt and innovate. Let's continue the conversation in the comments. What trends are you seeing?
