According to Deloitte’s 2014 Life and Annuity Industry Outlook, core system transformations and technology investments are top priorities for insurers this year. Legacy systems are hindering growth in the market, as the systems aren’t flexible enough to integrate with emerging technologies.

"While carriers should continue to seek bottom-line improvements by squeezing out unnecessary costs, they should also be looking to make more sustainable efficiency and productivity plays,” says Neal Baumann, global insurance sector leader at Deloitte Consulting LLP. “In order to achieve more impactful changes, they will likely need to rethink core operating models and how to more effectively leverage key capabilities across the enterprise.”

The drive for big data this year is encouraging insurers to improve their core claims system to be ready for the next wave of new technology; mobile capability and predictive analytics.

Predictive analytics allow insurers to manipulate the data they currently have stored in their database to improve business processes. Behavior based pricing, target marketing based on predicted interest, perceived value, and anticipated life events are to name just a few of the functions available to insurers through predictive analytics.
