ALEX PHILLIPS Senior Vice President Financial Lines Marsh McLennan
The pair outlined five areas where the risks for insurtechs may be different than for incumbent insurers , saying insurtechs need to carefully consider their reliance on third parties , regulatory changes across different markets , AI , fraud , and cybersecurity .
Third parties ( incumbents ) usually supply insurtechs with capacity for their products – so should anything change with an incumbent , this could put an insurtech at risk . Compliance in all territories is something insurtechs need to carefully consider , particularly when it comes to AI and cybersecurity .
