Keys to revenue growth include improved product modeling and management capabilities: Novarica

Boston, MA (Apr. 3, 2018) – In the hypercompetitive individual life insurance market, product innovation and speed to market are key to growing market share. Carriers are seeking to differentiate themselves through investments in analytics, core systems, and marketing- and service-related technologies. In a new report, Business and Technology Trends: Individual Life Insurance , research and advisory firm Novarica provides an overview of individual life carriers’ business and technology issues, data about the marketplace, and over 50 examples of recent technology investments by individual life carriers.

“Self-service capabilities for producers and-to a lesser extent-customers are increasing in importance,” said Rob McIsaac, Senior Vice President of Research and Consulting, and co-author of Novarica’s new report. “Carriers seek more modern systems that can better support rapid product development as well as pricing and product changes. Modern systems are also key to attracting and retaining top producer talent, as well as key in reducing carrier dependence on high-cost vendor resources for developing systems maintenance and enhancements.”
