Emerging from the storm: The day after tomorrow for insurance
Drawing on input from a range of leading insurers, financial market participants and PwC specialists from around the world, our latest publication, 'Emerging from the storm: the day after tomorrow for insurance' provides a global perspective on the financial crisis and how it is set to reshape the industry. It examines some of the key developments that are likely to affect particular segments and geographical markets and their strategic implications.
The report is centred around the nine key developments we believe the insurance industry currently faces:
- Organic restructuring
- The end of innocence for retail investors
- Re-awakening of M&A
- Another re-think on reporting
- Blurring the lines
- Overhaul of rewards
- Mounting uncertainty over tax
- Challenging prospects for reinsurers
- Tilting the regulatory playing field
We begin by charting the immediate impact of the crisis (the world 'today') and how the current scepticism and uncertainty are likely to mould stakeholder expectations going forward (the world 'tomorrow'). The main section looks at how the industry landscape will look in the afternath of the crisis and how this will determine the strategic choices facing insurers over the next three to five years (the 'day after tomorrow').
