Data-driven insights into class action risk across Europe, a key concern for major corporates

Big Data, artificial intelligence, blockchain solutions, along with the innovative use of web platforms and mobile technology have brought distinct advantages to the insurance sector. However, to fully take advantage of these advances in technology market participants must adapt to the shifting regulatory environment. CMS Insurance Group’s InsurTech Expert Guide intends to shed light on the outstanding opportunities that stem from the current rules on insurance distribution and digitalisation technologies. The publication has also been designed to help traditional insurance and InsurTech companies prepare for future regulations.

The Financial Services (FS) sector is a leader in protecting its tech infrastructure, reflecting the high degree of scrutiny from regulators. FS firms are at a tipping point, with large incumbents eying smaller firms and fintechs for their IP and skills to remain competitive while considering upgrades to legacy systems. Simultaneously, regulation is changing to reflect new and emerging technologies and threats. This report is a deep dive into data first produced for the re­port Tech­no­logy Transformation: Managing Risks in a Changing Landscape. This saw over 500 people surveyed from multiple industries across the world. Here we look in detail at the 85 respondents from the FS sector, and their perspectives on the risks associated with busi­ness-crit­ic­al technologies, including emerging technologies. This sector is more highly regulated than most of the other sectors surveyed, with many historical tech disputes relating to regulation. But the focus of regulation is shifting, and so are the risks affecting this sector.
