The President of the Ghana In­surers Association GIA, Mr Seth Kobla Aklasi, who made the call during the GIA’s third edition of its annual International Educa­tional Seminar in Accra at the weekend said, “AI-enabled tools can process claims in real time.”

The programme which was under the theme “Innovating Together – Building a Resilient Insurance Future” brought to­gether insurers and reinsurer and marketing, corporate commu­nications, economics, corporate management, and information technology experts, to discuss measures to promote the indus­try and the development of the country.

Sponsored by WAICA Re, the programme helped build the ca­pacity of the participating insur­ance practitioners and provided opportunity for networking.

Mr Aklasi said AI could be used to assess accidents in real time and credit accounts instantly.

The President of GIA urged the insurance companies to continue to innovate to meet the changing taste and needs of insurance consumers as well as global trends and also keep with international best practices.
