‍How is the pricing process evolving?

Our video series gives Actuarial and Pricing experts the opportunity to share their insights on important pricing topics, trends and challenges! Guillaume Beraud-Sudreau, Founder and Chief Actuary at Akur8, begins with the question: “What are the latest trends you’ve observed in the automation of pricing processes?”

What do actuaries have to say?

In episode one, Veronica Coronel Vera, Senior Engagement Manager at Munich Re answers Guillaume's question, and discusses the clear trends that are currently being observed in terms of automation in the underwriting and pricing process. Veronica believes that the recent birth of automated machine learning is changing the role of the pricing analyst and pricing department overall.
