"Insurance Intermediation: an invaluable tool"
The timeless concept of insurance remains intertwined with all types of human activity.
Undoubtedly, insurance intermediaries still have a dominant role in the market; professional insurers are the key links in the insurance sector chain, as they:
-enable communication between insurance companies and the insured, bringing together all parties involved;
-understand consumer habits and needs and can anticipate clients’ concerns;
-have the know-how which allows them to offer specialized information and effective guidance to their clients on modern insurance products and solutions available in the private insurance market.
Today, great changes are underway in all economic – business sectors which, in combination with the current needs of the insured, have transformed the landscape of the insurance market and re-defined the role of insurance professionals.
The Insurance Intermediaries Forum 2022 highlighted the latest developments in the insurance sector, the challenges that insurance intermediaries have to face today, new opportunities that have arisen as well as the “big picture” that has formed in the sector. Due to the rapid technological advancement, the repercussions of the pandemic and the emerging economic and other complex risks, insurance mediators have become indispensable to all insured individuals, as they are the most qualified professionals to offer insurance consultation services.
Insurance Intermediaries Forum 2022 #iifo22 was held on October 13, 2022, by ethosEVENTS in cooperation with portal banks.com.gr, insurance magazine Insurance World and portal insuranceworld.gr.
