The use of technology in the UK general insurance sector does not sit still.

Whether artificial intelligence (AI) is being used to streamline claims processes, or machine learning is tackling fraud detection, new and ever-evolving technologies are continuing to present a myriad of use cases across UKGI.

Insurance Times is committed to being at the forefront of content delivery on this subject, to ensure that brokers, insurers, MGAs and suppliers in the general insurance market can stay up to date and informed on the role and application of different technologies.
