Insurers need to spin the technology that offers their customers with more efficient, optimized and relevant policies. The ones that could be customized could be fed with data from a wearable/mobile device or the ones that are applicable for just an hour. With such customer focus initiatives, they yet need to achieve core business objectives like price and operational efficiency and compliance to stringent regulations. Could the Insurtech meet up the expectations? Could technology lend a helping hand? Let’s explore how the insurance vertical is evolving with the latest technology and what its future is –
The insurance firms are under immense pressure of reorganizing their house – customized policies, risk mitigation strategies, real-time analytics, instant claim settlement, sensors, drones and augmented reality (AR) apps are playing a significant role. So, what are the technologies adopted by the firms? Let’s take a closer look –
Robo-Advisors have seen a broad adoption across insurance sectors. Unlike olden days when hiring a financial advisor was a dream for many individuals, with Robo-advisors people of the low-income group could use DIY advisory for their financial portfolio.

Also, Telematics like monitoring automobile speed, the behavior of a rash driver could assist in making a clear judgment of claim policies for individuals and insurance firm. Hence while IoTs and interconnected network could be a boom in offering customized policies, these minuscule are taking insurance services to the next step.
Could technologies like Blockchain, Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality change the world sees insurance sector? Would they bring in the exotic flavors of policies? Only time can tell, for now, let’s explore how these technologies could be handy in insurance sector?
A distributed ledger technology has the potential to ease out fraud detection and risk prevention as per a report from EY. The report also highlights that blockchain is efficient in establishing transparent and customer focussed claims building trust and loyalty for the insurance firms.
Just imagine driving in stormy weather, an AR app helps you define the road/lane border so that you do not bombard a tree or a car in your parallel path. Or how about a 3D modeling and simulations help customers in making insurance claims easier and faster? Or how about before you go for the home insurance a simulation helps you pinpoint all the areas under insurance rather than reading the lengthy document? It all is a possibility with AR and VR technologies.
