With autonomous vehicles set to disrupt the future of mobility , Apollo ibott 1971 ’ s Chris Moore talks about the implications for the insurance industry
Chris Moore , Head of the Apollo ibott 1971 syndicate , is possibly an anomaly within the world of insurance . Few kids dream of growing up into a life of underwriting , but Moore says he knew he wanted to get into insurance since going off to university .
“ I studied mathematics at Bath University ,” he tells us . “ A lot of people talk about falling into insurance or just somehow ending up in insurance ; I may be one of those that actually wanted to be in insurance . That ' s something I ' m quite proud of .”
After graduating from university , Moore pursued a career as a broker in London , spending two years at Catlin before joining Apollo a decade ago . It ’ s no surprise that he has stayed : the company sits at the vanguard of new technologies , creating insurance solutions for emerging businesses that will be household names in a few years ’ time .
“ I love insurance ,” Moore effuses . “ We should be advertising the amazing things about the insurance industry and trying to recruit the freshest talent from university .”
One of Apollo ibott 1971 ’ s biggest areas of focus is autonomous vehicles ( AVs ). Certainly , it has the potential to increase convenience for consumers and unlock new opportunities for mobility in our daily lives . But AV technology also has the potential to reshape the insurance industry , and insurers must hop on board early to ensure they ’ re fully prepared .
