But what about experiences that we wouldn’t come across daily? What was to happen if your house was to burn down? Or a client whose business you’re placing the insuring has a catastrophic fire, damaging the one piece of machinery that keeps their business operating?

CPD WEBINAR: EMERGING RISKS- Human v automated decision making; have we gone too far

  • Thu 26 Jan 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm
    • Jeff Heasman, Jeff Heasman Consulting

We have reached a critical crossroads in the digitisation and automation of processes within insurance and financial services. Some say that we have already gone too far and the human element is being continuously eroded, whereas others believe we have not gone far enough and that insurance and financial services continues to lag behind other professions. There is a fine balance to be struck. Based on doctoral research being conducted by Jeff Heasman and other sources of research and industry insights, this thought-provoking webinar will examine both sides of the debate and suggest a way forward to ensure the best possible outcome for the profession and for our clients. With the new Consumer Duty requiring a review of algorithms to test for bias in decision-making, the debate has never been more relevant.
