Singapore's Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Trade and Industry, Gan Kim Yong, highlighted plans to strengthen the insurance sector, particularly in the areas of AI and workforce development.
The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) is collaborating with insurers under Project MindForge to develop a risk framework for the responsible use of AI in insurance.
MAS and the Institute of Banking and Finance are commissioning a Jobs Transformation Map to explore how AI will reshape job roles in the financial sector and identify the required skills for the future.
Singapore is also reinforcing its position as a reinsurance hub by supporting specialized coverage needs, collaborating with multilateral development banks, and promoting green investments in the insurance sector.
