Insurance Third Party Administrator (TPA) – Service Provider Landscape with Services PEAK Matrix™ Assessment 2018

29 Jun 2018
by Somya Bhadola

The global insurance TPA market is getting more dynamic owing to a number of acquisitions/partnerships and rise of “BPO-heritage TPAs”.

On the demand side, owing to unfavourable macroeconomic conditions, tightening regulatory regimes, profitability pressures, and the rise of digital-savvy customers, insurance firms are now showing more inclination towards outsourcing than ever before. They used to outsource different and specific processes to TPAs and BPOs. More recently, insurers have started looking for “one-stop solution” instead of having multiple relationships for different processes. While both “traditional TPAs” and “BPO-heritage TPAs” have their own value propositions, insurers want to realize the benefits of both the worlds.

Driven by this demand, TPAs and BPO providers have started expanding their expertise in processes beyond the traditional areas and now, often cut each other’s paths. As both “traditional TPAs” and “BPS-heritage TPAs” evolve, more head-on competition is expected going forward.
