Abstract

The paper focuses on the digital transformation that is greatly affecting the insurance industry and forcing radical change upon corporate culture, products and processes, customer relationship and relations with the sector’s various competitors. By responding to three research questions, the paper aims to contribute to the academic discussion and proposes to offer useful cues of reflection to the insurance management, since the dissemination of new technologies needs to move towards continuously updated business models.
