Bancassurance & Distribution Partnerships
Sell insurance through banks at scale.
The executive challenge
The problem this program solves
Every conference shows a competitor's bancassurance success story. Inside your institution, the same initiatives stall in committee or die in integration. Boards tolerate transformation theatre for about two budget cycles — the third one funds a competitor instead. You will stress-test your own institution in the IPAT Data Lab™ and leave with a bancassurance strategy that survives both a supervisor and a competitor.
Context
Why this matters now
Capability
What you will be able to do
- Diagnose where your institution creates — and destroys — value in bancassurance across the balance sheet.
- Present a bancassurance position to boards and supervisors with evidence they will accept.
- Read the economics of bancassurance like an operator: unit costs, network effects and risk-adjusted return.
- Sequence a bancassurance transformation agenda that a board will fund and a regulator will endorse.
The IPAT Course Standard
The five-day journey
Each day is a deliberate progression in managerial capability — from strategic context, to analytical frameworks, to applied practice, to executive judgement under pressure, to a capstone that produces something your organisation keeps.
IPAT Signature Case™
The Margin That Walked
The most profitable product at a development finance institution has quietly migrated to instant-payment rails the institution does not own; deposits follow the customer, not the branch. The board wants a response before the next pricing cycle — and the bancassurance data is contested in every committee.
Your decision: Build competing rails, partner with the platform, or reprice the legacy book to defend margin — each path changes the institution you become.
IPAT Data Lab™
The bancassurance unit economics at a pan-African insurer work in the business case and fail in the ledger.
Dataset: Synthetic product-level revenue, cost and capital data for a pan-African insurer.
Your task: Rebuild the unit economics, stress them against rate and funding shocks, and recommend what to scale or exit.
