Articles

Here are recent articles by The End Of Insurance As We Know It author Rob Galbraith on insurance, the role of innovation and how insurtech startups can enable a transformation of the entire industry over the next decade.

Insurance as a discipline, not a side show

This article is my first piece for InsurTech Rising 365 and argues that Innovation should be viewed as an equal discipline within insurance carriers – no different than Claims, Underwriting, HR, Finance or IT.  Too often, it is not treated as such – to the detriment of making meaningful improvements in customer experiences.

Innovating ‘where no man has gone before’

This article was co-authored with thought leader Karen Geva for Insurance Nerds and argues that too much focus on innovation within insurance carriers is placed on growing revenue and reducing losses, instead of truly improving customer experiences and making valuable, but “unsexy”, improvements in the efficiency of back office processes which both help to reduce expenses and provide better service to customers.
