#Freedom #Solidarity #Justice For us at HDI Global SE these democratic values are the foundation of a strong economy and a fruitful exchange between different #cultures. I experience this invaluable exchange every day at HDI Global. We’re proud of our more than 5,000 colleagues in our worldwide locations and business partners in more than 175 countries, that bring in their different cultural backgrounds successfully for our clients every day. Our global mindset fosters #innovation, as we can draw on a wealth of perspectives and experiences. Our multilingual team connects effortlessly with clients worldwide, breaks down barriers and expands our reach. But it's not just about business. In our inclusive culture we celebrate our differences and promote #respect and #tolerance. For me personally, #democracy and its values are non-negotiable. I therefore support the initiative of the GDV Gesamtverband der Deutschen Versicherungswirtschaft e.V., the German Insurance Association, on the occasion of the European elections from 6 to 9 June 2024. But regardless of the European elections, democracy needs advocates who stand up for it – everywhere in the world and every day. #UseYourVote #EP2024 #EveryVoteCounts #DemokratieVersichert

The fact that we at Smile Versicherung are already celebrating our 30th birthday comes as a surprise to many. For me, it is one of the key success factors and USPs on the market. Smile is the InsurTech that has grown up, experienced enough to know what we want, but young and dynamic enough to still do it. As a digital lifestyle brand, innovation is part of our DNA, while at the same time we always build on a solid foundation in our core business. If you are interested in the history of the oldest InsurTech, I recommend the following article 😍 #insurtech1994 #smileinsurance #foreveryoung Roberto Monosi Aniello Lena Stefan W.

The future of insurance: In times of major transformations, insurers and clients need to... collaborate and maintain a close dialogue.   During my interview with Susanne Schier from Handelsblatt, I stressed our conviction at HDI Global: We want to stay close to our clients and help them capitalise on opportunities in times of constant transformation by adapting ourselves and developing tailored solutions. Be it new sources of energy, progress in autonomous mobility, climate risk mitigation or the growing utilisation of AI in industrial sensors: Insuring against emerging risks of innovations means enabling economic progress for all of us. In this way, we act as the global industry’s true Partner in Transformation.   Read more about my takes and our commitment here – in German language: https://lnkd.in/ewvhUwsK   #HDIGlobal #PartnerInTransformation

Always think from the client's perspective and adapt to their needs. In an interview with Michael Stanczyk from German insurance magazine Versicherungswirtschaft Heute, I explained why this is so important for HDI Global SE. Our clients are in transformation, whether they are concerned with the transition to carbon-neutral technologies, the use of #GenAI, the technological change of #mobility, or the Industrial Internet of Things (#IIoT). We, as HDI Global, want to be their Partner in Transformation. Our services allow our clients to focus entirely on #innovation in their core business. Besides that, some questions have been raised about recent developments in our industry. #HDIGlobal #PartnerInTransformation #Together #Ownership #Performance

If you haven’t done so, I highly encourage a quick read through these very interesting survey results. It’s no surprise that we continue to see a decrease of people’s trust in government to enhance the US-German relationship, but we also see the massive responsibility people have placed in businesses to maintain and improve the trust between these two countries. I found the results of this survey particularly interesting as it relates to what we do at Allianz Trade. In the 2022 survey and this year’s alike, we see trade is a major component for the foundation of the US-German partnership. Fostering reliable global trade, which TCI helps to enable, between the US and Germany is one key component to helping rebuild the wavering trust for this transatlantic partnership.

I'm thrilled to announce that our department has undergone a name change: effective immediately, "Skill Management" will now be known as "Competence Management." 🌟 The new name is the result of a participative process where two departments idenpendently came to the identical prioritization. While our mission and dedication remain the same, this new name will be used uniformly across all of msg insur:it and reflects our close cooperation with my colleague Adi Palm and his department - together roughly 650 employees. Furthermore, it better reflects our commitment to fostering a holistic and dynamic approach to developing our team's capabilities and to create value for our clients. 💡 Here's to a future where competence leads the way to excellence! 🌐💪 #Leadership #TeamDevelopment #CompetenceManagement #Innovation #msg #futureofinsurance #msginsurit

𝐑𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐲 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫 2024 𝐢𝐧 𝐆𝐞𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐲? ☔️🌧️ In the last 6 months, it rained 40% more than the long-term average over Germany*. Rainy weather always fuel our travel rain insurance sales: +137% vs 2023 so far 📈 At the same time, we pay more in claims, as clients’ holidays are affected by the rainy weather. That’s a lot of money I send to clients every month! 💸 This weekend, travel reaches a peak in Germany, and we have plenty of contracts under way. Luckily for us and for our clients, it will be a very sunny weekend ☀️ Let’s hope for all of us that it stays this way! Any predictions for 2024? Do you think it will be a rainy summer? Should I take bets? *Numbers calculated by Deutscher Wetterdienst.

Dear Linked IN, #Nonprofits, #municipalities, and #hospitals are taking a beating in 2024 according to cyber insurance insiders. Finding an insurance professional who understands the market risks and adds value to the cyber security program becomes more critical every year. GST Specialty’s cyber insurance underwriting and security protocol allows you to bolster your defensive playbook against cyber threats. Life insurance remains crucial for many families with young children, but good insurance agents get a bad rap for being pushy around this topic. The challenge, without a bit of discomfort, sometimes buyers do not change their behavior. “According to the Munich Re Cyber Risk and Insurance Survey 2024, 87% of global decision makers say their company is currently not adequately protected against cyber-attacks.” That is only part of the mess; Business Email Compromise (BEC): According to the FBI, “In a BEC scam, criminals send an email message that appears to come from a known source making a legitimate request, like in these examples: *A vendor your company regularly deals with sends an invoice with an updated mailing address. *A company CEO asks her assistant to purchase dozens of gift cards to send out as employee rewards. She asks for the serial numbers so she can email them out right away. *A homebuyer receives a message from his title company with instructions on how to wire his down payment.” This happens every day to smart people and does not discriminate between gender, race, creed, or ideology. Adequate training and established protocols help protect against these threats. Are your employees trained and are they listening? It's summer and I find myself yelling to not run at the pool. The seven-year-old boys do not follow constant training and reminders, so the risk of slipping does not go away. BEC accounted for $3 billion of losses from 2021-2023 globally. But wait, there’s more… “There were twice as many software supply chain attacks in 2023 compared to the previous three years combined. In 2023, the software supply chain cost businesses US$45.8bn to address 245,000 supply chain incidents (Juniper Research).” It is a great time to become more educated on this topic because the cyber criminals are not losing momentum. Please let us know if you have any cyber security or insurance questions. We are here to help!

Over the past 18 months, we’ve been hard at work solidifying our role as the backbone of Allianz. With a new delivery model, streamlined internal processes, and an agile way of working, our transformation journey is in high gear. Now, we’ve kicked it up a notch. We are the movers and shakers, creating actionable IT innovations for tomorrow’s business breakthroughs. #TechCulture isn’t just a buzzword; it’s a lived experience. Just last week, we were at Europe’s largest start-up campus, brainstorming with global start-ups and partnering with a top-tier incubator. We are the drivers and enablers of GenAI, expanding its impact across numerous use cases. Our developers harness the power of AI-assisted code, supercharging productivity across the entire software development cycle. From underwriting and claims to support functions like procurement and audit, GenAI is transforming operations across our customers’ organizations. But we’re not stopping there. We’ve launched a GenAI upskilling program to elevate the entire Allianz workforce, further blending human ingenuity with artificial intelligence. We are bold and sometimes radical in modernizing our IT landscape. Starting early in our cloudification journey and keeping the speed high is a huge enabler for innovation. At the same time, our courage has paid off: transitioning our core insurance system from the mainframe to an open system has been a game-changer, now delivering proven positive results. Welcome to the next level of Allianz Technology: we're pushing boundaries, we’re breaking barriers, and together we are rocking IT! 🎸🚀 #AllianzTechnology #Technology #Transformation #Innovation #AI #GenAI #Modernization #CustomerCentricity #NextLevel #RockingIT
