- Written by: iPMI Global

In this iPMI Global TV report we discuss the significant growth opportunities within the LATAM health, travel, expatriate insurance, assistance and cost containment market, driven by an expanding middle class and increasing awareness of insurance benefits.
We highlight the market’s fragmentation and associated challenges, including regulatory complexities and low insurance penetration. Strategies for addressing inequality and achieving operational excellence are also explored, along with the dominant players and future prospects for the region’s market. The companies’ diverse product and service offerings tailored to the specific needs of LATAM are a central theme.
"The Latin American insurance and assistance market presents a dynamic and promising landscape with significant growth potential. However, success requires a deep understanding of the regional nuances, effective management of complex regulatory frameworks, strong operational capabilities, and an unwavering focus on providing accessible and affordable solutions to diverse populations. Companies that embrace innovation, leverage technology, and build strong partnerships will be best positioned to capitalize on the opportunities and drive positive change in the region." Christopher Knight, CEO, iPMI Global.
