Morristown, NJ – November 15th, 2021 – Majesco, a global leader of cloud insurance software solutions for insurance business transformation, today announced the availability of a new point of view paper Embracing Innovation and Growth Opportunities in P&C Insurance. Developed in collaboration with Capgemini, this paper is based on a series of roundtables held jointly by Capgemini and Majesco with startup and incumbent insurers underscores the rapidly evolving industry dynamics and new growth opportunities that are taking place within the property and casualty industry.

“We are living through the best and worst of times in the insurance industry with a growing frequency and severity of risks like climate, weather, theft as well as the introduction of new cyber risks and unexpected business interruptions," says Seth Rachlin, Global Insurance Industry Leader at Capgemini. “We are increasingly living in a connected world with a vast amount of data available to insurers. How insurers derive insights into these evolving risks, while continuing to pivot and offer relevant insurance products as well as connect across the value chain and provide new value-added services will determine how they continue to keep pace with innovation in the industry.”

A perfect storm of cultural, demographic, and global pressures is changing policyholder behaviors and business models to create demand for new P&C risk products and value-added services. Today’s policyholders also demand personalized, consistent, transparent, and convenient customer experiences, from sophisticated price quoting to fast claims processing. To compete, insurers must prioritize innovative new products underpinned by real-time data and technology. The race is on, and market leaders are redefining the competitive in terms of pricing, quality, and customer experience.

“In today’s dynamically changing market, there are a growing number of unserved and underserved markets, often driven by new industries, innovative new businesses, technology, and shifting customer needs and expectations. These changes have insurers scrambling to effectively support this enormous shift to position themselves as leaders in this new era of insurance,” says Denise Garth, Chief Strategy Officer at Majesco. “Those willing to adopt an innovative insurer mindset and leverage technology to adapt to market changes stronger and better prepared for the future of insurance.”

The paper shines a light on the industry changes. Forward-thinking leaders are making bold, warp speed moves with a two-speed strategy to optimize today’s business while simultaneously creating their future business.  They are focused on next-gen platforms, ecosystems, new channels, new products, and business models – all key strategies that influence and accelerate growth.
