Insurance & Reinsurance Leadership
Underwriting, risk transfer, and leading insurers in emerging markets.
The executive challenge
The problem this program solves
Growth in insurance keeps arriving through channels the institution does not fully control — and supervision is asking questions your reporting cannot yet answer. Margin erosion is quiet and compounding, and it is revealed only when it is expensive to reverse. In five days you rebuild the insurance decision: value chains priced, scenarios stressed, partnerships structured, and a board-grade agenda sequenced.
Context
Why this matters now
Capability
What you will be able to do
- Price and negotiate insurance partnerships with governance that protects the institution.
- Structure insurance products, pricing and partnerships that survive regulatory and competitive stress.
- Anticipate the regulatory trajectory of insurance before it is written into rulebooks.
- Stress-test insurance strategy against rate, FX and credit scenarios before the board or the supervisor does.
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 pan-African insurer 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 insurance 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 insurance unit economics at a development finance institution work in the business case and fail in the ledger.
Dataset: Synthetic product-level revenue, cost and capital data for a development finance institution.
Your task: Rebuild the unit economics, stress them against rate and funding shocks, and recommend what to scale or exit.
