Since the 2014 publication of SMA’s groundbreaking report, Next-Gen Insurer: Fueled by Innovation, the pace of change has continued to intensify and gain momentum. The purpose of this report is to recap the shifts and progress the industry is making. It is also to highlight the momentum of the influencers. Insurers must watch and track these powerful influencers, for if we do not, we will find that they have forced change on the insurance industry and we will not be in a position to respond.
The image below shows SMA’s Next-Gen Insurer framework. The framework highlights eight major influencers, coupled with the explosion of data that are creating the pressure points for change and demanding insurers to rethink the fundamentals of their businesses around the customer, products and services, infrastructure, and business model.
