Enable insurance manufacturers and distributors to cost-effectively and efficiently offer, sell and service insurance protection that meets the needs of the digital consumer.
Untapped, incremental revenue opportunity
People who need insurance but who are intimidated by:
current in-person channels (which don't scale and can't cost-effectively address them) and
the complex products and choices (designed to sold by an in-person advisor)
Monolithic insurance companies - that manufacture and distribute insurance products.
Many celebrating centuries - e.g. Manulife 150 years old this year.
Long term, risk averse business - slow to respond to environmental changes because of this.
PRODUCT: No product innovation in years; don't know how to think differently about products; out of touch with customers needs.
LEGACY SYSTEMS: And if they could come up with new products, legacy systems constrain how they can be designed.
Legacy systems are hard to make changes to, and even harder to replace. The batch processing architecture…
... relies on manual steps which in turn drive up costs and interrupt every business process, impeding the delivery of a fully digital experience.
Omni-channel, customer centricity aspiration, remain just that. Aspirations.
To address the insurers challenges, and the startups limitations, we have designed a platform that connects the two types of entities in what we see is becoming a two-sided wholesale market place.
1.DISTRIBUTORS: BrokersBanksAggregatorsPortfolio ManagersProprietary channelIncidental purchasesInsurers own channel
2. INSURERS: Incumbenmts, and new entrants enabled by our platform.
3. REINSURERS: Speed risk to capital. Realtime view into their portfolio, data and ability to dynamically adjust mix or pricing; inform product design; represent other types of capital providers and risk underwriters
4. DIGITAL SERVICES: Solutions specifically for Insurance, (underwriting, claims) generally for Financial Services (KYC, AML, and other new digital services or enablers (eSignature, Payments). Plus others to support marketing, and personalisation.
More than a market place, it externalises the core insurance systems that constrain innovation into a Blockchain-based, Distributed Ledger.
