Insurance Today - Listen to a new podcast from Allianz

Posted: 10 July 2019
A year on from the first episode of the 'Insurance Tomorrow' podcast, which looked at emerging issues, we are launching 'Insurance Today', a podcast looking at some of the issues currently facing the insurance industry.

Hosted by Allianz UK's Corporate Communications Manager, Mark Bishop, industry experts from across the Allianz business join him to consider how this news might affect Allianz, the insurance industry and brokers in the near future.

In the first episode of Insurance Today, Allianz’s experts discuss the challenging relationship between insurers and the motor repair industry and how that is evolving, the launch of the new Insurance Fraud Bureau’s hub to help catch fraudsters and the challenge of coming up with an effective response to the issue of dual pricing.
