Ultimately, we want to be client centric as this is the best chance we have to ensure a sustainable

industry. However, the journey to be client centric rests on a number of pillars.

The journey to Client CentricityEducation

(financial literacy & professional

training)

Distribution (Omni-channel)

Regulatory (Prudential &

Market conduct)

Education

• World Economic Forum says more kids are going to school, but quality of education is becoming an issue, due to:• More kids in a class room• Little expansion of school

infrastructure• Industry needs to support all

efforts to drive bigger school enrolment with focus on quality education

• Focus is on improving maths & science enrollment levels and pass rates

Consumer Financial Literacy

• Has to cover personal financial circumstances through to understanding insurance products (i.e. benefits & costs)

• Financially literate consumers is a strong antidote for high lapse rates

• True client centricity cannot happen when consumers are not financially literate

• A financially literate consumer is the cornerstone to our industry sustainability

Industry Professional Training

• Systems and processes are core to our operational success• Needs to be addressed over

short to medium term• Technical skills (i.e. actuarial)

and expertise are relatively scarce and we have to build it over time• Needs to be addressed over

medium to longer term• Assess for appropriate skills

within insurers but also within regulator

Reputation

• Our products are intangible and integrity of the product is based on the promise we make to clients

• Issue of Trust is paramount in our industry

• This is amplified when industry players do not live up to promises they made

• Industry has to be seen as one which treats customers fairly

Page 22: Ian Kirk, Sanlam Group CEO · To lead in client-centric wealth creation, management and protection in South Africa To be a leading Pan-African financial services group with a meaningful

Key challenges in Africa

• Fragmented key markets (i.e. Kenya & Nigeria)• General Insurance (GI) business opportunities

greater than Life• Require strong GI capability

• Continuous focus on basics and getting fundamentals right (i.e. systems, collections, renewals & persistency)

• Skills development opportunities for staff – professional training & development

• Governance & ethics• Risk management & compliance• Regulation inconsistency
