Delegates will hear how insurtech is revolutionising risk management at next week’s Bermuda Risk Summit at the Hamilton Princess & Beach Club.

Law firm Appleby said the Bermuda Business Development Agency’s presentation of the fourth annual summit will welcome leading risk specialists for engaging thought-leadership sessions, cutting-edge keynote presentations and C-suite networking.

Appleby partner Duncan Card will participate Wednesday in the insurtech panel titled “Breaking Barriers: how InsurTech is Revolutionising Risk Management”.

Insurtech includes the creation of personalised policies, speeding up the claims process and improving risk assessments.

The law firm said: “The panel will explore how insurtech is transforming the industry – from life and specialty insurance to digital asset protection and claims automation, while sharing the latest advancements, challenges of integrating new tech into traditional insurance models, and why Bermuda has become a hub for insurtech growth.

“Duncan specialises in technology development, procurement and contracting and related cloud, SaaS and outsourcing services.

“He has been involved in insurtech projects for over 25 years, many involving some of the largest insurance companies in the world.

“His widely acclaimed 2021 book on IT transaction best practices, published by Thomson Reuters, has two large chapters devoted to IT and risk management.”
