In the news - Ian Lloyd reflects on an era of consolidation for Insurance Age review of the year

We’re now entering the final few weeks of 2024, and what a year it’s been for Iprism, as well as the market. Acquisition, consolidation, regulation and ever-evolving market cycles have presented challenges, and of course opportunities for everyone, but what lies ahead in 2025?

Iprism’s CEO Ian Lloyd features in the annual Insurance Age ‘review of the year’ column, looking back on some of the highlights of this year and considering the factors that may shape the year ahead.

Read the article in full to see Ian’s take on:

• An eyebrow-raising acquisition for Ardonagh - “surprising, more for the size and scale of it than anything else”
  
• Why the FCA needs to learn more about MGAs - “I’d ask them to have MGAs more front of mind when introducing new regulations and change to our industry.”
  
• Which reality TV show would get Ian’s toes tapping if he had the chance - “My repertoire is somewhat limited by my two left feet, so I’d love to be able to do something more than embarrassing dad-dancing.”
  

Ian finishes the column with a note about Iprism’s plans for next year:

“2025 will be Iprism’s 20th anniversary year, and we have some ambitious plans for it. If we can get most or all of them across the line then it will definitely have been a good year.”
