Summary


Big data – unstructured and/or structured data being used to influence underwriting, rating, pricing, forms, marketing and claims handling and incentivize risk reduction – is a relatively recent development in the insurance industry, the data sets previously being too impossibly great to analyse through traditional methods. However, with the global capacity to collect and store data growing alongside advancements in AI and machine learning technology, insurers need to seriously evaluate their technology stacks to ensure they can remain competitive and respond to growing customer demand.


Striking a balance between the technical characteristics of the subject and the practical aspects of decision making, spanning from fraud analytics in claims management, to customer analytics, to risk analytics in solvency, the comprehensive coverage presented makes Big Data an invaluable resource for any insurance professional.
