InsTech - insurance & innovation with Matthew Grant & Robin Merttens

Paul Carroll, Editor-in-Chief: Insurance Thought Leadership: From Dr Death to Insurance Thought Leadership (314)


Listen Later

Joining Insurance Thought Leadership over 10 years ago, Paul Carroll’s motivation was his belief that of four areas yet to be disrupted by digital innovation, insurance was one of them. 

This week Matthew Grant caught up with Paul Carroll to ask after 11 years of looking at insurance, how are insurers doing with technology?

Key talking points include:

  • Looking back, we predicted greater disruption: the fault of regulation and risk capital
  • The industry metabolism and its speed
  • Dinner with Bill Gates
  • When looking at insurance, are there disruptors equivalent to Microsoft?
  • The birth of catastrophe modelling after Hurricane Arthur in ‘92
  • The ‘Trough of Disillusionment’
  • The rise of the platform 
  • The Laws of Zero
  • How has the way we consume information digitally changed?
  • If you like what you’re hearing, please leave us a review on whichever platform you use or contact Matthew Grant on LinkedIn.
