How did you get into insurance?
I was born into the insurance business. My grandfather, father, uncles, aunts, and multiple cousins are all in the industry. My grandfather started an insurance agency in my hometown of Clinton, Iowa, in 1963. When I was young, my father joined that agency, and his brother, my uncle, joined shortly after. The two of them still run the agency today.

大手損害保険会社のハートフォードが、スペシャルティ保険部門（会社役員保険/航空保険/信用保険など特定リスクを対象とした保険）のシステムを9か月で全面クラウド移行した話題です。同社では、ここで得たクラウド移行に関するノウハウを全社に展開したいとしています。アイテ・ノバリカ・グループでは、保険業界のIT活用事例を「Insurance Technology Case Study Compendium 2021: IT Practice」にまとめました。
■ スペシャルティ保険事業の拡大とシステム課題
米国の大手保険会社ハートフォード保険は、2010年代、リストラクチャリングの一環として生命保険事業を売却する一方、損害保険事業を拡充するため、スペシャルティ保険に特化したナビゲーター・グループを21億ドルで買収した（2018年）。この結果、システム面では、自社のスペシャルティ保険部門とナビゲーターのシステムを統合し、セキュリティ対策も全社統一ガイドラインに合致するようアップグレードする必要が生じた。
これまでハートフォードのクラウド・コンピューティング活用はシステム開発に限定されていたが、本番環境のクラウド化も論議されていた。そこでスペシャルティ保険部門のシステム統合を、クラウド移行/本番稼働の「実験プロジェクト」として取り組み、移行/運用ノウハウを獲得することが計画された。

How did you get into insurance?
A friend of mine was working in insurance, and he decided to go a different route. This created an opening, which I decided to pursue. I write mainly personal lines such as home and auto insurance.
How do you approach prospecting?
My main approach is just to be myself. I focus on people I know and build on those relationships. Then I try and get them to introduce me to people they know. I stress that I am there to help them with their insurance needs.
How do you build relationships with carriers?

On Thursday, July 22, Mitch Wein and I hosted Aite-Novarica’s Broker-Dealer Research Group. Halfway through 2021, broker-dealers are facing challenges relating to increased digitization and return-to-office planning. This is also a critical period for broker-dealers as they frame technology requirements to manage ongoing regulatory changes and demographic shifts in the workforce.
