LINK CORRECTION: InsurTech Insights, a new monthly newsletter from The Digital Insurer - December 2016

December 2016

The first edition of our brand new InsurTech Insights Newsletter is available for you to ready below. In a series of monthly blogs, in collaboration with KPMG, we will be exploring topics of interest in InsurTech. Each month we will focus on a different theme and our inaugural theme is on P2P & Community.

There have been an increasing number of players entering the P2P space and it's certainly a model that has attracted a lot of interest from investors, the industry and consumers alike; it's a model based on the principles of transparency, trust and fairness, which is atypical to most current insurance models.

This month's newsletter features two quite different articles on the theme; the first, written by Rick Huckstep, is about Lemonade and is a follow up to their launch in September. Rick catches up with Lemonade's founder, Daniel Schreiber to see how they are progressing post launch but also gets to the crux of what they are all about and whether they really are a P2P player, as they have been labelled. The second article is a viewpoint from Murray Raisbeck from KPMG and explores whether P2P models are sustainable - a question that is often asked about new InsurTech models within a world that has a slew of new technologies entering the markets.

We are also pleased to announce that we have extended our relationship with KPMG on a more global level. KPMG have been a supporter and sponsor for The Digital Insurer over the past year and sponsor one of our core content pillars, Digital Insurance in Action.

As part of our renewed and extended agreement, KPMG will continue to be a core sponsor of specific content on The Digital Insurer, including the new InsurTech Inisghts Newsletter. The extended agreement with KPMG will draw on KPMG's global resources and will therefore also support The Digital Insurer's plans to become a global content provider in Digital Insurance.

Hugh Terry, Founder of The Digital Insurer, commented:

“Our extended and global partnership with KPMG is allowing us to expand our coverage on digital insurance. We have decided to adopt a thematic approach which will look at the key themes in digital insurance and will aggregate knowledge and insights into a convenient blog. With the global partnership we will be able to access more insights from within the KPMG global network of consultants and client relationships as well as through the research and connectivity of The Digital Insurer.”

As the world of InsurTech is moving fast we plan to update each blog to keep them up to date and relevant . Do send us links and info that you think are relevant to this topic to news@the-digitial-insurer.com. We hope you enjoy reading our first edition of InsurTech Insights!
