Expert Insights on Insurance Industry

Insurance is the act of hedging against unexpected loss to an individual or a business in case of a certain unforeseen, yet not totally unexpected, event. The entity indemnifies itself against such a loss by entering into a contract with an insurance company by paying a fee, called a premium. The premiums collected by an insurance company are used to fund accounts for claim payments and for investment purposes.

Gerson Lehrman Group Council Members are available to discuss Insurance Industry via phone consultations, live meetings, surveys, and other custom GLG products and services.
