“The time of ‘business as usual’, of stabilising and consolidating, is over. In the future, courage, drive, creativity and stability can only be found in the constant intelligent handling of change. In other words, when it comes to the skills people need to have, we’re faced with requirements that are shifting the centre of gravity.”

— Christian Schüssler

What used to be a rather safe business with a regulatory corset is clearly growing into an agile business in need of just-as-agile executives, too. At ifp, we can look back on almost six decades in this field: our company founder started out in insurance, and at ifp, insurance is in our DNA.

Traditional processes are being called into question, while cost and competitive pressures continue to rise. At the same time, this enormous upheaval – further intensified by the pandemic and shortage of skilled labour – brings with it exciting opportunities. Marked by major investments in new digital processes and business models, the future of the insurance industry is becoming quickly visible: a mobile, flexible and digitally forward-looking market in need of people who can set the course for this supporting pillar of the financial services sector.
