This week’s roundup captures the accelerating fusion of AI and insurance infrastructure, where automation isn’t just a pilot, it’s becoming policy.  From the surging growth of U.S. MGAs to Charles Taylor’s deployment of agentic AI and Liberate’s voice-driven claims overhaul, it’s clear the industry is getting serious about scale and customer experience. Meanwhile, regulatory moves in Europe and compliance innovation at New York Life show that governance is rising in tandem with tech. Whether it’s digital underwriting in London or mobility-led AI at ERS, the message is consistent: the transformation is well underway.
