The life insurance industry has witnessed a significant transformation driven by technological advancements in recent years. As insurers strive to enhance operational efficiency, improve customer experience, and stay competitive in a dynamic market, the role of IT services has become increasingly crucial. The insurance industry widely adopts the practice of leveraging IT service vendors to optimise IT operations, harness the power of data analytics, and adopt emerging technologies, such as policy administration systems, claims management platforms, and other related solutions.
This report analyses the current landscape of IT services vendors within the Life insurance sector, highlighting key trends, challenges, and opportunities that insurers face in this rapidly evolving digital era.
