Key Applications of Insurtech

 

 Key Applications of Insurtech

 

Verification of Customer Identity

Insurance firms, reinsurers, and brokers must complete the Know-Your-Customer (KYC) procedure. Insurers must gather counterparty information to authenticate identities, requiring a large quantity of data. Insurtech can help. Some insurtech businesses have employed blockchain to construct client ID software. This gives the insurer, reinsurer, and broker full control over client records.

 

Managing Claims

 

Companies may utilise blockchain to establish a standardised claims document examined in real-time. Automating smart contract components ensures flexible and transparent implementation. This improves customer-insurer relations.

Smart Contract Formulation

Smart contracts automate document authentication, negotiation, and enforcement. In the event of a life insurance pay-out, the system checks online death registries, verifies the claim, and begins the pay-out without bothering the mourning family. Smart contracts accelerate and improve claim processing. Without an assessor, companies can register contracts, perform authentications, and settle claims quicker. This prevents fraud and boosts consumer happiness.

Detecting Fraud and Risk Prevention

 

Claim fraud is widespread. Historically, fraud management required a large expenditure. A decentralised digital depository can identify and eradicate fraud via insurtech. This validates the person and claim, preventing duplicate transactions or third-party intervention and making all transactions public record.

Payment Processing

 

Premiums and claims must be streamlined. Auto insurance policyholders are paid by the mile. A telematics device in the car captures real-time mileage to compute and pay the charge. It also decreases mistakes.
