InsurTech at Gallagher Re
As a trusted adviser to primary insurers, reinsurers and other corporate clients, Gallagher Re takes a lead in supporting both market incumbents and new entrants to profit from InsurTech. Opportunities abound for businesses to solidify their position, grow, diversify, and lower expense ratios – if they make sound choices about who and what they work with.
Technology is revolutionizing the world we live in – including the (re)insurance value chain.
But with so much activity going on, including a constantly growing slew of new market entrants, it can be a confusing scene.
The InsurTech team within Gallagher Re has made it our mission to conduct forensic analysis of the global third-party insurance technology ecosystem, looking to support our insurer clients with their innovation strategies and to help owners of outstanding technology with their funding, development and potential partnerships.
