Despite strict regulations and growing digital threats, the CEOs of the insurance sector are confident that the insurance industry will remain positive. <\/p>\n<p>According to KPMG&#8217;s latest Global CEO Outlook report for the insurance sector, 78 per cent of CEOs have a positive view of the industry as a whole, while 82 per cent of insurer CEOs are confident about their company&#8217;s growth prospects. The survey identified artificial intelligence (AI) as a clear priority for investment. <\/p>\n<p>73 percent of the CEOs surveyed have included AI in their key spending areas, and most expect returns within 1 to 3 years. Many CEOs plan to spend 10 to 20 percent of their technology budget on AI projects aimed at improving claims handling, risk analysis, and customer service. <\/p>\n<p>Despite this excitement, executives have also acknowledged real challenges.

This reflects the views of insurance company leaders around the world. The results show that the insurance sector is facing both familiar and new challenges. Most owners believe that their companies can continue to grow through technology and operational improvements. <\/p>\n<p>Whether or not this trust lasts will depend on how effectively the insurance industry translates AI investments into measurable outcomes and how it handles the regulatory and security issues that come with greater digital dependence. \u2013 Agency<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kathmandu.
