Prospecting

We’ve just seen a short video that depicts the transformation of the underwriter of the future. Can you talk about your views of change and how that takes us to some of that future vision? Specifically,
what are the dimensions that change will take – incremental, transformative and disruptive?

Panelist Question 2
21
There are several technologies suggested in the video and discussed in these slides that will enable the underwriter of the
future. Which technologies do you think will most influence your segment of the business?
![Page 22: The underwriter of the future - IASA Underwriter... · 2018-01-05 · Clearly, the importance of underwriting will remain in the future even as the underwriting roles change. With](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022043009/5f9abc545bedfa01844485be/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Data holds the promise of new insights and efficiencies in the future. How will new sources of data (e.g. exposure data, customer data,
sensor data, imagery data) influence analytics, decision making and customer service in the future?
![Page 23: The underwriter of the future - IASA Underwriter... · 2018-01-05 · Clearly, the importance of underwriting will remain in the future even as the underwriting roles change. With](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022043009/5f9abc545bedfa01844485be/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Panelist Question 4
23
Many of us here today joined the industry in the 80’s and 90’s when the underwriting career path seemed to dominate senior leadership
roles at most P&C insurers. Today, the C-suite is dominated by financial and actuarial skills. How do underwriters regain their
enterprise leadership roles in the future?
![Page 24: The underwriter of the future - IASA Underwriter... · 2018-01-05 · Clearly, the importance of underwriting will remain in the future even as the underwriting roles change. With](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022043009/5f9abc545bedfa01844485be/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

Panelist Question 5
25
Clearly, the importance of underwriting will remain in the future even as the underwriting roles change. With the advent of emerging
technologies and new sources of data, the skills and behaviors of the underwriter will undoubtedly change as well and executives
today should be concerned about the human resource side of this wave of change. Can you talk about your views on the components
of talent development that will address both current underwriting resources as well as the recruiting and development of the next
generation of underwriters?
