Creating Embedded Insurance for the Sharing Economy Market (w/Arik Shpak, Connected Insurance)

Arik Shpak is Co-Founder and Chief Insurance Officer at Connected insurance, focused on the creation of new insurance markets in the "sharing economy" such as transportation and mobility. These new markets are growing at over 30% per year but lack of traditional actuarial models and experience. 

Connected helps any sharing economy business embed insurance into their product offering creation. Their technological invention is to utilize advanced event sourcing technology and provide real-time data analysis algorithms and machine learning. This helps fill the gap on actuarial data and discovers a way to price and write the required insurance.

Arik is former the head of innovation at Kesh Underwriters, and an insurance broker at Shepherd Compello Ltd in London (a Lloyd’s Broker and Coverholder). He describes how he sees what Lloyd's is doing in discovering and innovating new insurance markets as being a true basis for the insurance world.
