It is no secret that the customer experience is one of the biggest modern battlegrounds for business. Despite this, many companies still fail to offer end-to-end streamlined experiences. Ushur was designed to change this.  

In today's business landscape, prioritising the customer experience (CX) has become a ubiquitous concern across all industries. In the InsurTech realm, competition is intensifying, and insurance providers are increasingly recognising the pivotal role of the CX in attracting and retaining clients. FinTech Global sat down with a pair of industry experts to dissect this phenomenon.

As digitalisation accelerates and customer expectations evolve, 2024 is set to see a disruption to traditional models, offering personalised solutions, streamlined processes, and enhanced customer experiences.

Unless you’ve spent the past year under a rock, you’ll be aware of the excitement for generative AI. While many have used the technology to write emails, do homework or create CVs, generative AI could be one of the most transformative technology stacks to businesses. Laila Beane, the chief marketing officer at IntellectAI, the insurtech and wealthtech brand of Intellect Design Arena, recently delved into generative AI’s impact on insurance.

Tradition is something to be honoured, but not at the expense of progress. In recent years insurance carriers have moved away from paper forms, and instead implemented digitalisation throughout their product. But there is more to come.
