Digital Insurance LatAm
The first strategic consultancy specializing in innovation and digital transformation for the Latin American insurance ecosystem.
Overview
Digital Insurance LatAm is the first strategy consultancy specialized in innovation and digital transformation for the insurance industry in Latin America. Founded in 2018 by Hugues Bertin, a veteran actuary and former executive at BNP Paribas Cardif, Mercer, and PwC, the company bridges the gap between traditional insurers and the emerging insurtech ecosystem across the region.
The firm offers end-to-end advisory services including innovation strategy design with a proprietary "fast-track" methodology, solution selection and implementation, human capital development for digital transformation, and corporate venture capital advisory in partnership with HCS Capital Partners. Digital Insurance LatAm has become a central hub for the LatAm insurtech ecosystem, connecting carriers, brokers, MGAs, and startups across multiple countries.
Digital Insurance LatAm also publishes the annual "Latam Insurtech Journey" report (sponsored by MAPFRE), the most comprehensive analysis of the Latin American insurtech ecosystem, tracking over 500 startups and investment trends across the region. The firm organizes the "Insurtech Latam Forum" which attracts 2,000+ attendees annually.
