It will take more than a global pandemic for the Canadian insurance industry to falter. We know just how tenacious, innovative, and committed our community is.
This being said, we must act now to serve customers’ most pressing requirements. Long-term development strategies focussed on digital transformation and technology integration are being fast-tracked into today’s action plans, not as a matter of choice, but as a matter of urgency. Canadian carriers must step up and bring solutions forward to their customers who themselves are finding a ‘new normal.’
Join Reuters Events: The Future of Insurance Canada (November 3-4, 2020).
The industry’s most senior executives are coming together to share their latest strategies on how to serve customers in a post-Covid world in which communication, intuitive products and value-add services have never been more important.
Join us online in November as we redefine insurance in the 2020’s.
