The full results of the study will be coming out soon, but at the InsureTech Connect conference this month, Accenture and the Institutes shared an early peek into its key findings around such topics as underwriting investments, technology, quality, and talent. You can find a video of the discussion and a short preview of the upcoming survey results below.
Keep your eyes peeled for more on this exciting study.
