Transforming delegated authority operations to improve efficiency and performance
Overcoming the operational, data and technology challenges to support profitable growth and more effective portfolio oversight
Bob Bob Ricard, Leadenhall
Free to attend | Only 15 places
Overview
Delegated authority has become a significant source of growth for many London market carriers. However, the operating models supporting that growth have often developed through manual processes, fragmented technology and inconsistent data. As portfolios expand, these weaknesses make it harder to understand exposure, monitor performance, meet regulatory expectations and maintain effective oversight of MGAs and coverholders.
This discussion will go beyond the limitation of bordereaux and will explore how carriers are redesigning delegated authority operations to enable a more efficient and controlled way of working.
You will hear how your peers are tackling these challenges, compare different approaches and leave with practical ideas for improving oversight, data flows and operational performance. The discussion will also help organisations identify which capabilities they need to develop internally and where collaboration with MGAs, coverholders and the wider market is essential.

Key themes to be discussed include:
-
Redesigning DA operating models to improve oversight, reduce manual work and support profitable portfolio growth
-
Improving the quality, consistency and timeliness of data received from MGAs and coverholders
-
Connecting underwriting, operations, exposure management, claims and finance to create a clearer view of DA performance and risk
-
Deciding where carriers should collaborate on standards and shared processes and where organisations need to develop their own capabilities
-
Using technology and automation to improve data ingestion, controls and reporting without simply digitising existing inefficiencies
