Hartford, CT (PRWEB) May 04, 2015 -- NEOS LLC, a management consulting and technology services firm, will host a joint webinar with Milliman, the leading actuarial firm, on “Overcoming the Hurdles of Product Portfolio Expansion” on May 22 at 12 pm ET.
Steve Leigh, Managing Consultant at NEOS, and Kelly Rabin, Consulting Actuary at Milliman, will discuss the common barriers preventing product expansion, how to get past those barriers, and recommendations to help insurers gain confidence in their ability to grow their portfolios. Many insurers want to implement innovative products or expand product lines but struggle to get over the finish line. There is a gap between the products they want to offer and their internal capabilities.
During the webinar, there will be an opportunity for attendees to participate and submit specific problems or roadblocks they are experiencing to be addressed by the speakers.
“We have witnessed insurers’ ongoing struggles to release their products on time and budget. If they can’t be quick to market, they will lose their competitive advantage,” says Steve Leigh. “That’s why Kelly and I wanted to host this webinar: to provide some insight to help them get over these hurdles.”
Kelly Rabin adds, “Amid generational shifts and a record-low interest rate environment, the insurance industry must innovate in order to stay relevant. But it’s not enough to have a great idea – you also need the right process throughout the organization to make it happen.”
This webinar is part of a series of NEOS-hosted webinars focusing on a variety of topics within the financial services, insurance and information media industries. Previous webinars have addressed topics such as gaining value from closed block portfolios, leveraging processes to reduce operational risk and the use of actionable key performance indicators. The webinar series includes experts from across industries to maximize value to attendees.
