Insurance is a highly-regulated business and the constant evolution of the regulatory landscape is a challenge for many firms. Changes to the world around us, whether in the form of emerging developments such as climate change, autonomous vehicles and the increasing use of AI, or more immediate challenges such as global pandemics, all have regulatory and compliance implications as well as demanding new ways of working and the development of new products and services.
Holding and processing data is now a cornerstone of every insurance business. However, the law in this area is ever more complex, and difficult to understand and apply.
In the UK, we are seeing an increased focus on product oversight and governance, and – through the new Consumer Duty – an insistence on ensuring good outcomes. And senior managers face personal accountability if things go wrong.
