Warranty, Distribution & Being Tech Forward : An Interview With Matan Slagter, CEO, Armadillo

Hello and welcome to the latest episode of the Leadership in Insurance Podcast where this week we are lucky enough to be joined by Matan Slagter, CEO of Armadillo, the tech-enabled, subscription-based home warranty provider for homeowners and landlords, who are pioneers in the new age of home warranty.We had a great conversation this week where we discussed a wide range of topics such as: Matan's insurance career & why warranty? Is t surprising that the warranty market has only 4% penetration when we spend an increasing amount on technology in our homes?  What do you think this says about our relationship with insurance? Do we need to help people fall in love with insurance?  Do they not see its value because we haven’t shown them what that truly is? Is insurance lacking clarity of message and communication? Being 'tech forward' Are you an Insurtech or something else? Armadillo's distribution model  Will you narrow distribution over time? Why was now the right time to launch?  How did Covid impact Armadillo's plans?  How did it impact the funding round? You took on outside funding – at what stage had you taken the business before you did so?Thank you Matan for your time, it was great to speak to you!This Podcast was brought to you by FinPro, an executive recruitment business that works in the Insurance and Insurtech space.Our host in FinPro Director, Alex BondPlease like and subscribe if you enjoyed this podcast Hosted on Acast.
