Insurance Biz SA: The week in brief

Many of you would have noted that our logo has had to undergo some subtle, yet important changes in the last week or two. We are glad that our team has fallen in love with this new identity, and we hope that the logo will represent part of the reader and follower experience, while we remain uncompromising with our quality of content and its delivery. All this will no doubt collectively form the Insurance Biz SA brand experience.

We are also glad that today our editorial team successfully launched the Insurance Biz SA Weekly Dossier, our flagship newsletter that will carry premium content delivered weekly to your inbox for no fee. This week's issue was leading with a Q&A from Lee Bromfield , FNB Insurance CEO, and an article by GENRIC Insurance Company Ltd 's Chief Risk and Compliance Officer, Stuart Forbes exploring the trends shaping the insurance sector in 2023 and beyond. Bryan McLachlan , Managing Director: Africa at CyborgIntell takes our readers through the challenges faced by insurance companies, and the growing pressure to digitalise their customer experience to meet the needs of today's consumer.

Priyen Mehta , Head P&C Southern Africa, Swiss Re says that the re/insurance sector has a key role to play in boosting resilience against natural catastrophe. However, Mehta also points out that insurance in itself is no substitute for constant investment in good planning and adaptation measures to mitigate risks.

You will notice that our Insurance Biz SA platform is a portal that is constantly evolving. This is so that we can better service our readers and provide them with our brand promise of offering them "news on the move". This promise also speaks to our recognition that our target market is a mobile-first happy bunch who consume the bulk of their news on the move. So do not be alarmed when you are requested to sign-in in order to read our exclusive articles. The process will not take you anything upwads of 30 seconds to complete.

Enjoy the read, and your weekend!
