Insurance Team

A Select Team* - A diverse team of professionals in audit, tax, advisory, and technology, each with specific sector expertise, working in perfect synchrony to meet client needs.

We understand insurance, Because we’ve worked at insurance companies.

The Insurance Team at KPMG is comprised of a diverse group of professionals specializing in audit, tax, consulting, and technology, each with specific expertise in the insurance sector. They work in perfect synchronization to meet the unique needs of our clients.

Our deep understanding of the insurance industry comes from direct experience working within insurance companies. In Israel, the insurance sector is complex and expansive, featuring around five major players along with numerous smaller and medium-sized firms. The industry confronts a multitude of challenges, including redefining business strategies, navigating mergers and acquisitions, exploring new expansion opportunities, undergoing digital transformations, and adapting to the emergence of new InsurTech companies. Additionally, there are challenges in complying with evolving regulations, managing open banking, adhering to ESG practices, dealing with illiquid investments, and addressing both Israeli and international taxation issues.

Our service to clients, which includes insurance companies, pension funds, and pension plans, is comprehensive and addresses all aspects of the complex environment in which they operate. Our offerings encompass insurance, accounting, information systems, tax consulting, business consulting, due diligence, identifying new revenue streams outside of traditional insurance operations, and creating synergies with the financial and InsurTech sectors.

Many of our team's experts have previously worked within insurance companies, equipping them with an in-depth and insider's understanding of the industry. This experience is crucial, as it distinguishes our team members from general IT experts to those who have directly worked within the insurance sector. Having been at the heart of the industry, our team is uniquely positioned to see and understand the full picture.
