Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly can Delville Management respond to an urgent assignment in the insurance sector?
Delville Management can mobilise specialist managers within 72 hours, including for senior leadership roles in the insurance sector. The firm has a pool of transition directors with experience at insurance companies, mutual insurers, and bancassurers, selected for their immediate availability and their command of the regulatory environment (Solvency II, IDD, IFRS 17).
How long should a transition management assignment in the insurance sector typically last?
An interim leadership role pending a permanent hire typically lasts 6 to 9 months. A transformation or regulatory compliance project tends to run for 12 to 18 months, depending on the complexity of the scope. At Delville Management, the duration is defined contractually based on the regulatory or operational milestones of the assignment.
What are the current challenges in the insurance sector that justify using transition management?
The insurance sector is facing a convergence of challenges: implementing IFRS 17, growing exposure to cyber and climate risks requiring modelling, pressure on technical profitability, and the digital transformation of distribution and claims management processes. These workstreams require highly specialised expertise at short notice — something transition management can deliver without the delays of a permanent hire.
How does the onboarding process work for an assignment in the insurance sector?
Before the manager takes up the role, the Delville Mission Director prepares the integration by sharing the relevant context: ongoing regulatory issues, the structure of the leadership team, and key relationships with partners (actuaries, supervisory authorities, distributors). A three-way meeting is organised at the start of the assignment to align objectives and success metrics between the client, the manager, and the firm.
