Rest easy… really?
Things are getting heated, more complicated and tougher as we draw nearer to the end, and the spot they are all competing for, which is the title of The Insurance Apprentice 2022, is getting closer.
We have ten remaining contestants this week and by the end of this episode, only eight will remain. The determining factor between those who go and those who stay, will be the contestants’ performance in this week’s challenges.
Viable distribution models
Sasria’s current business model is limited to insuring only clients that are insured by the traditional insurers; Sasria uses all insurers in South Africa as its distribution channel, therefore, all clients who do not have access to traditional insurance are automatically excluded from Sasria cover, this includes majority of Small to Medium Enterprises (SME’s).
In episode six, sponsored by Sasria, the candidates are tasked to develop an alternative business model that outlines how Sasria can insure all other clients who do not have access to traditional insurance.
With judge Simon Colman, Business Head of Digital and Financial Lines at SHA Risk Specialists and guest judges Ntsoane Selela, Customer Relations Manager at Sasria and Nox Dlamini, Managing Director at XonRisk in tow, each team is provided with the brief.
Meeting the mandate
Not looking for a product-based solution but viable distribution models that are supported by the relevant business model/s, the solution that Sasria was looking for had to make provision for all other clients, that currently do not have access to traditional insurance companies, including SME’s.
Did they meet the mandate?
