• Hundreds of insurance industry decision-makers were surveyed to dive deeper into the current state of the digital insurance landscape, as well as the challenges of getting insurance programs off the ground and launching them digitally.
• Sure's 2024 State of Digital Insurance Report reveals pain points standing in the way of digital insurance.
• As consumers seek more seamless experiences to purchase insurance in a digital world, many carriers and brands are looking to keep pace by developing digital insurance programs from the ground up.
• Sure recently launched Anywhere Insurance to meet these challenges head-on by radically rethinking how to launch new insurance programs and bring them to market digitally.

• This made it the hottest year on record, 0.17°C higher than the previous record in 2016.
• However, shortly after that announcement, the Met Office also forecast a multi-day blast of cold Arctic air bringing sub-zero temperatures, snow and ice to many parts of the UK.
• When the cold snap arrived, temperatures dropped to -14°C in the Scottish Highlands and -11°C even in England.
• Yet just ten days on from that record warmth, much of the UK has again been hit by unusually cold and snowy weather.

You cannot sense the climate

• We can spot climate changes in environmental shifts like receding glaciers or early flowering plants, and we can track changes with instruments.
• But it remains very hard to “feel” climate change.

Hot one day, cold the next

• The weather might be hot one day and cold the next, but an annual mean climate cannot suddenly slide from warm to cold.
• For example, weather information might refer to the local temperature at noon or 4pm, the daily minimum, average or maximum temperatures, or the weekly average.
• Climate information might refer to, for example, average temperatures over a month, or averages over seasonal (three-month) periods, years or decades.

The line wiggles upwards

• There are, of course, some variations of around 0.1°C or so – the wiggles in the red line – as the climate does not change perfectly smoothly.
• That’s why 2016 was exceptionally hot, and the years after were slightly cooler.
• These variations become more pronounced when we zoom in and examine a smaller regional area or shorter time units.
• Looking at the right-hand graph alone – 174 years of data – you’d struggle to spot recent climate change.

• They show that the chances of experiencing sub-zero weather is still significant even in the more recent 2002-2022 period.
• However, the “tail” of daily minimum temperatures to the left of the mean is thinner, so extreme cold temperatures are less common.
• These are signs that Oxfordshire is warming over the long term, and its winters are warming slightly faster than the world as a whole.
