Insurers focused on the mid-market and large commercial segments show no signs of slowing down their distribution evolution journeys.

This report features new research from a survey of executives on the current state of digital capabilities for distribution partners, the challenges of deploying new capabilities, and carriers’ plans to put new digital capabilities into the market. Other insights in the report include where insurers are prioritizing investments across eighteen digital capabilities related to sales and seventeen digital servicing capabilities.
