InsurTech pertains to use of technology innovations designed to make the insurance industry more competitive and efficient. InsurTech is a combination of the words “insurance” and “technology.” While it is a commonly accepted fact that the insurance industry is ripe for innovation and disruption, InsurTech uses technology in more than one ways. One of the easiest solutions has been to digitize policy aggregation whereby a digital platform can be set up to replace the middlemen selling insurance policies to the users. This not only makes the process more efficient but also enables customization of policies depending on the specific needs of each user. Another revolution has been the use of technology to offer ultra-customized policies. With the deep inroads made by digital channels across all facets of life, there has been an explosion of data regarding each person using such channels. One of the ways in which this data has been used is to establish trends in people’s habits pertaining to health, travel, lifestyle, hobbies, etc., which are then used to offer such highly customized solutions to the users. Some disruptors in the InsurTech space are listed below.
