How solutions can evolve to better serve the growing ageing population
Forward-looking insurers are changing their views and increasingly focus on consumers’ needs
“We protect you from the risk of…” “We listen to consumer needs…”
“Protect yourself from the risk of outliving your
savings”
“Don’t let me go into a care home – keep me independent and as healthy as possible”
“I rely on the state – but I need
backup in case it fails me”
“I’ve done quite well in life, but I’m
worried about my grandkids’ future”
Traditional protection solutions Solutions to solve more real-life needs
“Protect your children’s
inheritance”
“Protect yourself from the risk of
being unable to pay for institutional
care”“Help me make
plans if I reach a stage of cognitive
decline”
