Leaders’ Insights:
Acceleration Strategies for Profitable Growth
The Value of Insurance in A Changing Risk Landscape is shown from a VIG perspective. Today’s economies and societies are facing a transformation of risk, which is reflected in many major events such as the COVID-19 pandemic or return of war in Europe. Climate risks are also seemingly spiraling out of control while public and private intangible assets and data are under increasing threat from cyberattacks. This new global risk landscape is a significant test of insurers’ capacity for financial loss absorption, and insurance companies must be mindful of potential challenges to their traditional value proposition of risk transfer.
You will also receive a leader’s update on the regulatory framework (inter alia DORA/AIA/FIDA/ESG) and insights into the status of digitalization in the financial market from a supervisory perspective.
Looking forward, traditional growth paths will be harder to achieve, margins will continue to be pressured, and disruption will continue. Insurance leaders need to pull both “Traditional” and “Next Gen” levers at the same time to achieve significant, sustainable cost reductions alongside growth. In 2024 – 2026, insurers will focus on “back to the core” and bottom-line profitability as well as improving customer retention while adapting to the digital age. Operational resilience and organizational agility are also top priorities to enable insurers to be flexible and responsive to market fluctuations.
The conference will bring concrete practical examples of disruptive shifts and transformations in the areas of mobility, health and finance with a direct impact on the insurance industry into the dialogue.
We will also bring the experiences of our premium partners on the GenAI journey to the conference. In the ‘Senior Dialogues’ of the preceding evening, practical embedding examples of GenAI in the insurance industry will be illustrated. And brace yourself for Prof Dr Bart De Langhe to inspire you in the closing keynote of the conference with his new bestseller ‘Leveraging Human Intelligence to Unlock the Power of Data’.
The Insurance Conference 2024 will once again address and discuss fundamental questions at the highest level. The participants are senior executives who have been personally invited.
InsuranceCom AT-CEE – the platform where Senior decision-makers of the Austrian and Central & Eastern European Insurance industry meet and exchange their experiences.
