On the show today, we have Elliott Green.
Next to being the guy with the best haircut in the insurance industry, Elliott is sales director at Genasys Technology, a modular, cloud-based insurance solution for insurers, MGA’s and brokers.
Elliott and I met a few months ago. We started talking about how most insurance companies are working with outdated systems for policy admin or claims management.
These legacy systems are often holding them back to transform their business, build new products and market segments, and leverage advanced technology. Secondly, outdated processes are also holding them back. Think about all the paperwork, all the briefcases in the London market. And even if a company claims to be paperless, chances are high there is still a lot of admin work because of pdfs, manual and inefficient processes.Elliott has an interesting view on these topics, so in this episode I dig a bit deeper and want to know, "Is there a better way?".
Topics we cover:
- Typical challenges of London market insurers
- Large digital programs aren't the answer
- 2023 - The year for Insurtech Challengers to take over. Why now?Hey, it's Fred. Thanks for tuning in to our show. Let's connect on LinkedIn! 🤝

In deze podcast spreek ik met Arvid De Coster. Ik kreeg hem eindelijk te pakken! Arvid is CEO en oprichter van één van de spannendste Insurtechs in België, WeGroup. WeGroup is een verzekerings-distributieplatform die het leven van verzekeringsmakelaars, maar ook klanten makkelijker maakt. Een tijdje terug vierde het bedrijf haar vijfjarig bestaan en ondertussen bedienen ze meer dan 2000 adviseurs over heel Europa.
We bespreken twee grote onderwerpen: wat loopt er anno 2023 nog mis in de verzekeringsdistributie en welke rol zal technologie de komende jaren in deze markt spelen. Het is nu, meer dan ooit, belangrijk om de huidige manier van werken in vraag te stellen. Echter, als makelaar is het niet evident om van alles op de hoogte te zijn. Als je niet beseft wat er zit aan te komen, dan heb je een groot probleem.
Volgende vragen komen aan bod in de podcast:
Moet chatGPT verboden worden?Wat verstaan we onder state-of-the-art verzekeringsdistributie?Google versus de makelaar?Wat is nu eigenlijk de impact van AI en large language models (LLMs) zoals GPT op het leven van een makelaar?Hoe kunnen we slimmer met onze huidige softwaresystemen gaan werken?Wat kan jij als individu doen?Hey, it's Fred.

Klaar om bij te leren van een topexpert in de makelaarsindustrie? In deze podcast hebben we niemand minder dan Luc Van Antwerpen, CEO bij Concordia, te gast. Luc leidt één van de grootste makelaars in België en een deel van de Ecclesia Group, de grootste verzekeringsmakelaar in Duitsland.
Uit meer dan 20 jaar ervaring in de industrie leerde Luc waarom het belangrijk is om op tijd mee te zijn met technologische ontwikkelingen en hoe je van een uitdaging een opportuniteit maakt. Het is duidelijk dat de makelaardij sterk aan het evolueren is. Niet enkel een War for Talent speelt op, maar ook de War for Engagement. Wat betekent dit precies en hoe kan je hierop inspelen? Welke opportuniteit zien we voor de samenwerking met mensen met een afstand tot de arbeidsmarkt (autisme, re-integratie na burn-out etc.)?
Niet enkel mensen spelen een cruciale rol in de toekomst van de makelaar, maar ook processen worden opnieuw ontworpen. Luc geeft het voorbeeld van centralisatie van de postkamer en welke rol technologie hierin speelt. Wil je hierover meer te weten komen? Aarzel dan niet om deze aflevering te beluisteren.
