1 in 5 Consumers Avoid Filing Claims Due to Frustrating Digital Processes, According to Insurity's Latest Survey
HARTFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Insurity, a leading provider of cloud-based software for insurance carriers, brokers, and MGAs, announced new findings from its 2025 Digital Experience Index, a national survey measuring consumer sentiment around digital interactions with P&C insurers. The survey found that 22% of consumers have avoided filing an insurance claim because the process was too frustrating or complicated, highlighting a critical gap in the claims experience that insurers must address to protect trust, loyalty, and long-term value.
The survey also found that 64% of consumers would consider switching insurers for a more seamless digital experience, revealing how easily poor interactions, especially during the claims process, can drive customers to competitors. As insurers continue to advance their digital strategies in 2025 and beyond, prioritizing intuitive, user-centric digital experiences will strengthen retention and build long-term customer loyalty.
As digital tools become the primary channel for customer engagement, the survey highlights that poor claims experiences are not just process inefficiencies but key drivers of lost trust and reduced customer loyalty. This insight comes when insurers are under increasing pressure to modernize core systems, enhance operational performance, and deliver greater value to policyholders. While many carriers have made significant progress in digital transformation, the findings make clear that technology investment must be paired with a strong emphasis on user experience. Those investments may fail to deliver meaningful returns without intuitive, efficient, and responsive interactions, especially during critical moments like claims.
'As carriers evaluate their core systems and digital infrastructure this year, the priority must be reducing friction where it matters most,' said Sylvester Mathis, Chief Insurance and Chief Revenue Officer at Insurity. 'A clunky or disconnected claims process frustrates customers and risks sending them elsewhere. When someone avoids filing a claim, despite having coverage, it signals a fundamental breakdown in trust. If policyholders feel friction, uncertainty, or inflexibility, they're less likely to file a claim, and far more likely to leave.'
This survey was conducted online in April 2025, and more than 1,000 adult participants were randomly selected across the United States to ensure a representative sample. Respondents were asked a series of 19 questions, ranging from multiple-choice to scale-based, to gauge their opinions on their digital experience. Data analysis was performed to identify key patterns and insights.

2 Shifts CEOs Can Make To Finish 2025 A Sharper And Healthier Leader
Being a stronger leader by years-end starts with these two things. We've reached the halfway point of the year. For many, well-intentioned resolutions have quietly faded. Even carefully crafted business plans have unraveled in the face of unexpected challenges. Whether you're the CEO of a global firm or a senior leader within an organization, chances are you've felt the strain. The role of the CEO has always been demanding. However, in 2025, it has become even more relentless and often misunderstood. Burnout, emotional fatigue, and quiet depression are becoming more common in the C-suite than most are willing to admit. Recent data from Vistage's CEO Confidence Index indicate a notable decline in optimism among executives with revenues ranging from $1 to $20 million. And it's not just smaller firms feeling the pressure. Russell Reynolds' Global CEO Turnover Index reports that the average CEO tenure dropped from 8.1 years in Q1 2024 to 6.8 years in Q1 2025, marking the sharpest decline in recent years. With expectations continually rising, now is a good time for CEOs not only to review organizational performance metrics but also to conduct a self-audit. Below are two core strategies to help leaders recalibrate and finish 2025 more focused, resilient, and effective than they started. We've all heard the airline safety instructions: secure your own oxygen mask before assisting others. It's a simple concept but one many leaders routinely ignore. Today's CEOs are facing a constant barrage of challenges, including volatile markets, a turbulent political environment, economic uncertainty, and exponential shifts in AI that are difficult to keep up with. Pressure is mounting, and with it, mental health is declining. According to the Vistage survey, 7% of leaders reported feeling emotionally exhausted or burned out daily, while 25% said they frequently experienced this feeling. To shift out of survival mode and return to a state of clearness, CEOs must start treating their well-being as a core business lever, not an optional luxury. Here are a few ways to begin: Trust is fragile. Once lost, whether internally or externally, it's hard to regain. And one of the fastest ways to lose it is poor communication. A recent example: Target CEO Brian Cornell attempted to address various organizational stressors with an internal memo. While he acknowledged the leadership's silence during recent controversies, employees remained dissatisfied. The message lacked direction. And without clear next steps, confidence can erode further. In today's business climate, employees don't just want polished updates; they want honest, human communication. With economic uncertainty looming and AI heightening job-related anxieties, leaders must prioritize transparency and honesty in their communication to maintain trust and confidence. Transparency isn't a weakness. Transparency builds alignment and strengthens loyalty in turbulent times. Start with these small, intentional actions to build trust: When leaders communicate clearly and consistently, they reduce anxiety and reinforce stability—regardless of the external chaos. Leadership, whether over 20 or 20,000 people, is a delicate dance. Like any skilled dancer, a great leader moves with timing, presence, and self-awareness. They adapt without losing rhythm. Sometimes, the tempo speeds up, such as when AI evolves overnight, markets shift, and employee sentiment changes. Other times, the moment calls for stillness and recalibration. As leaders enter the second half of 2025, remember that leadership isn't just about making wise decisions. It's about sensing the shift in music and responding with poise, not panic, because the CEOs who finish the year stronger than they started aren't just reacting. They're leading the dance.

What it would take to convert a jet from Qatar into Air Force One to safely fly Trump
WASHINGTON — President Trump really wants to fly on an upgraded Air Force One — but making that happen could depend on whether he's willing to cut corners with security. As government lawyers sort out the legal arrangement for accepting a luxury jet from the Qatari royal family, another crucial conversation is unfolding about modifying the plane so it's safe for the American president. Installing capabilities equivalent to the decades-old 747s now used as Air Force One would almost certainly consign the project to a similar fate as Boeing's replacement initiative, which has been plagued by delays and cost overruns. Air Force Secretary Troy Meink told lawmakers Thursday that those security modifications would cost less than $400 million but provided no details. Satisfying Trump's desire to use the new plane before the end of his term could require leaving out some of those precautions, however. A White House official said Trump wants the Qatari jet ready as soon as possible while adhering to security standards. The official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, did not provide details on equipment issues or the timeline. Trump has survived two assassination attempts, and Iran allegedly also plotted to kill him, so he's well aware of the danger he faces. However, he seems willing to take some chances with security, particularly when it comes to communications. For example, he likes to keep his personal phone handy despite the threat of hacks. He boasted recently that the government got the jet 'for free,' saying, 'We need it as Air Force One until the other ones are done.' Here's a look at what it would take to make the Qatari plane into a presidential transport: Air Force One is the call sign for any plane that's carrying the president. The first aircraft to get the designation was a propeller-powered C-54 Skymaster, which ferried Franklin D. Roosevelt to the Yalta Conference in 1945. It featured a conference room with a bulletproof window. Things are a lot more complicated these days. Boeing has spent years stripping down and rebuilding two 747s to replace the versions that have carried presidents for more than three decades. The project is slated to cost more than $5.3 billion and may not be finished before Trump leaves office. A 2021 report made public through the Freedom of Information Act outlines the unclassified requirements for the replacement 747s under construction. At the top of the list — survivability and communications. The government decided more than a decade ago that the new planes had to have four engines so they could remain airborne if one or two fail, said Deborah Lee James, who was Air Force secretary at the time. That creates a challenge because 747s are no longer manufactured, which could make spare parts harder to come by. Air Force One also has to have the highest level of classified communications, anti-jamming capabilities and external protections against foreign surveillance, so the president can securely command military forces and nuclear weapons during a national emergency. It's an extremely sensitive and complex system, including video, voice and data transmissions. James said there are anti-missile measures and shielding against radiation or an electromagnetic pulse that could be caused by a nuclear blast. 'The point is, it remains in flight no matter what,' she said. If the Qatari plane is retrofitted to presidential standards, it could cost $1.5 billion and take years, according to a U.S. official who spoke on the condition of anonymity to provide details that aren't publicly available. Testifying before Congress, Meink discounted such estimates, arguing that some of the costs associated with retrofitting the Qatari plane would have been spent anyway as the Air Force moves to build the long-delayed new presidential planes, including buying aircraft for training and to have spares available if needed. In response, Rep. Joe Courtney (D-Conn.) said that based on the contract costs for the planes that the Air Force is building, it would cost about $1 billion to strip down the Qatar plane, install encrypted communications, harden its defenses and make other required upgrades. James said simply redoing the wiring means 'you'd have to break that whole thing wide open and almost start from scratch.' Trump, as commander in chief, could waive some of these requirements. He could decide to skip shielding systems from an electromagnetic pulse, leaving his communications more vulnerable in case of a disaster but shaving time off the project. After all, Boeing has already scaled back its original plans for the new 747s. Their range was trimmed by 1,200 nautical miles, and the ability to refuel while airborne was scrapped. Paul Eckloff, a former leader of protection details at the Secret Service, expects the president would get the final say. 'The Secret Service's job is to plan for and mitigate risk,' he said. 'It can never eliminate it.' If Trump does waive some requirements, James said that should be kept under wraps because 'you don't want to advertise to your potential adversaries what the vulnerabilities of this new aircraft might be.' It's unlikely that Trump will want to skimp on the plane's appearance. He keeps a model of a new Air Force One in the Oval Office, complete with a darker color scheme that echoes his personal jet instead of the light blue design that's been used for decades. Trump toured the Qatari plane in February when it was parked at an airport near Mar-a-Lago, his Florida resort. Air Force chief of staff Gen. David Allvin was there too. The U.S. official said the jet needs maintenance but not more than what would be expected of a four-engine plane of its complexity. Sen. Tammy Duckworth, an Illinois Democrat on the Senate Armed Services Committee, said it would be irresponsible to put the president and national security equipment aboard the Qatari plane 'without knowing that the aircraft is fully capable of withstanding a nuclear attack.' 'It's a waste of taxpayer dollars,' she said. Meanwhile, Boeing's project has been hampered by stress corrosion cracks on the planes and excessive noise in the cabins from the decompression system, among other issues that have delayed delivery, according to a Government Accountability Office report released last year. Boeing referred questions to the Air Force, which said in a statement that it's working with the aircraft manufacturer to find ways to accelerate the delivery of at least one of the 747s. Even so, the aircraft will have to be tested and flown in real-world conditions to ensure no other issues. James said it remains to be seen how Trump would handle any of those challenges. 'The normal course of business would say there could be delays in certifications,' she said. 'But things seem to get waived these days when the president wants it.' Copp and Megerian write for the Associated Press. AP writer Lolita C. Baldor in Washington contributed to this report.
