The insurance sector in Malta has embarked on a transformation journey over the past decade. Today more than ever, insurance companies need to focus on growth strategies, operating efficiency and customer satisfaction, while also grappling with disruptive forces that are becoming the order of the day.

The current operating environment is moving at a fast pace. The insurance sector is facing the implementation of a significantly revised accounting framework - IFRS 17,  ‘Insurance Contracts’ - having recently had a myriad of regulatory changes as a result of the Solvency II regime, the EU General Data Protection Regulation and the Insurance Distribution Directive. The ever-changing technological landscape is also shifting the way the sector assesses customer behaviour and prices policies.
