In order to help insurers, brokers and banks across Africa, Equisoft commissioned Cenfri in cooperation with over 30 insurance associations to conduct research to understand the biggest challenges in insurance distribution and which solutions would be most impactful.
The research explored: #
- A 360° view of executive experiences with policy onboarding challenges
- Top opportunities for underwriters, brokers and banks
- The state of digital sales and agency automation challenges
We interviewed Cenfri senior researcher, Lucia Schlemmer, to learn more about the report. In this series of videos, extracted from the full-length discussion we had with her and available at the bottom of this page, Lucia discusses the key results from the report.
