This month’s InsurTech Insights explores how technology infrastructure is evolving for global insurers.There is no doubt that technology is reducing the barriers to global insurance business models – and just as manufacturing has already globalised, there is strong rationale to see the globalisation of many insurance business lines over the next
decade. | | This month we examine the efforts being made in China to tackle the increasing problem of chronic diseases such as diabetes, obesity and respiratory conditions.China has nearly universal public health insurance yet there is widespread concern about the cost of medical
procedures, which even those covered must pay significantly towards. | | This comprehensive quarterly report from Willis Towers Watson and CB Insights summarizes the InsurTech investment environment for the first quarter of 2018. This issue also provides insightful reviews and
profiles on InsurTech capital providers—including traditional VCs, incumbent insurance funds, and hybrid solutions. |
For this month’s InsurTech Insights, we take a look at the subject of wealth management from an insurance perspective.In the feature article from KPMG, Jill Hitchen from KPMG’s UK Insurance and Investment Management practice sets out a

Taking us further in thought leadership this month Swiss Re’s Cindy Zhang and Cecilia Sevillano look abroad to explore the opportunities smart home presents for insurers in China and
worldwide. | | The
complexity of the financial services industry, interconnectedness of individual players, and introduction of new and innovative technologies heighten the risk of a large-scale cyber-attack on the financial sector. Both the public and private sectors must mobilize themselves to be well prepared. This whitepaper from Oliver Wyman explores how this might be
done. |
