DIMENSIONS
Main Figures:
CONTEXT AND MAJOR CHALLENGES
The P&C Retail business is a core pillar of the Group in terms of both Underlying Earnings (>33% of total) and customer base (20m+). Although each market AXA operates in has its own dynamics, regulations and challenges, the fundamental requirements and propositions for the retail business are similar, covering at large motor, home and travel insurance.
As of today, Motor insurance remains the 'anchor' product of the industry. In the mid-term, along potential further commoditization or technology advancements (i.e. electric vehicles, autonomous cars, ...), the private Motor market is assumed to get materially smaller (and potentially less profitable).
Moreover, the customer experience is still overly complex and P&C insurers struggle to build long-term and relevant customer relationships, driven by 1) low frequency of interaction, 2) a lack of differentiation, 3) increasing commoditization and 4) increasing price pressure. Thus, a large portion of the P&C Retail business stands at a strategic crossroad, intensified by changing supply and demand side trends which drive the integration of existing value chains to solve specific customer problems, giving rise to ecosystems.
In addition to all this, a lot of additional external challenges are impacting the profitability level of this business segment: claims inflation in first place, climate changes development and customer behaviour modification.

The ideal candidate needs to have a wide experience in the Insurance P&C market, with a good understanding of the underwriting cycles and the major topics involved.
