Key Findings & Highlights:

NelsonHall's market analysis of the Life, Annuities and Pensions Outsourcing industry and LA&P BPO trends consists of 75 pages.

NelsonHall has segmented the LA&P BPO industry into three areas:

  • 'Speed-to-market'
  • 'Customer service enhancement'
  • 'Legacy policy cost reduction'.

The LA&P BPO market is currently led by the 'legacy policy cost reduction' segment, however, this is set to see the slowest growth, and 'speed-to-market' will grow the most through 2017 as vendors seek to differentiate and develop innovative products to take to market at speed.

  • Typical benefits sought across all segments include:
  • Improvements in turnaround time
  • Improvements in cycle time
  • Low operating costs over the life of the contract.

In the closed-block space, LA&P BPO reduces policy admin costs and levels of attrition; while in open blocks, LA&P BPO will increase exposure and reduce cost of new market entry.

In terms of offerings, LA&P BPO continues to focus on customer services, policy maintenance and claims processing. In-line with identified customer requirements, the most commonly-offered services are policy administration, claims management and new business processing.

Within open blocks, the ability to offer straight-through processing (STP), so that data is captured once only at the point of sale, is a key offering for outsourcing vendors.

Increasing offshore delivery of non-customer-facing processes is taking place among LA&P BPO vendors, principally out of India and Manila. India remains the preferred offshore delivery location with all offshoring vendors using this geography from which to serve LA&P BPO clients.

The U.K. and U.S. remain the key LA&P BPO markets, with the emergence of LA&P BPO in continental Europe and APAC. The U.S., in particular, is a core target market for vendors, but the U.K. will see a decrease in sales emphasis, especially in the closed-block space.

Having identified target geographies, vendors are now looking at ways to capitalize on the opportunities within them: predominantly through technology augmentation and enhancements.
