“We Are Farmers”…Soon to be an Employee Benefit<\/p>\n

We’ve been following since it was first rumored last December, the\u00a0acquistion of MetLife’s P&C business was closed by Zurich through it’s Farmer’s subsidiary<\/a>\u00a0this week.\u00a0 An condition of the deal is an exclusive 10-year distribution agreement allowing Farmer’s access to MetLife’s Group Benefits platform “which reaches 3,800 employers and approximately 37 million eligible employees.”\u00a0 The deal was not only a traditional acquisition of a book of business but also a new distribution channel that could be game-changing for Farmers (Zurich).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

GM’s New Ventures Include Insurance<\/p>\n

GM’s Innovation Chief lays out the automaker’s many\u00a0side ventures that include insurance<\/a>\u00a0powered by telematics from OnStar.\u00a0 They hired an industry veteran some time ago but it is interesting that they are speaking about insurance being a large part of their transformation to address future markets they estimate to be worth $1.3 trillion beyond traditional vehicles.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
