5 Transformative Strategies to Conquer Insurance Risks and Unleash Profitable Growth

Insurance technology is evolving from reactive detection to proactive prediction through robotic underwriting, artificial intelligence, machine learning, analytics models, and effective credit assessment.

AI-driven digital technologies have drastically remodeled robotic underwriting processes, pricing & claim settling with minimal human interventions resulting in higher settlement ratios. Risk management with an effective risk modeling system & risk rating platform not only brings an adding value to the financial business but it also plays a significant role in effective regulatory compliance.

Here are 5 major steps that can enhance insurance through robust risk management–

1. Intelligent Robotic Underwriting

Manual underwriting involves efforts and costs. Robotic underwriting brings in operational efficiency by automating premium identification and controlling deviations.

Robotic underwriting, used in collaboration with Natural Language Processing (NLP), drives significant improvements in existing underwriting as well by combining internal data repository with customer profile information and seamless integrations with external third-party data providers with pre-defined business rules that improve accuracy.

2. Risk analysis through predictive modeling

Risk is profit for insurers. Segmenting customers based on their risk profiles & data insights helps underwriters in defining optimum premium for riskier products.
Predictor models help in minimizing losses to the insurance firms and prioritize claim settlements while equally battling against the potential frauds in real-time.

3. Measuring profitability through impact analysis

In order to sustain growth, impact analysis provides a “what if” scenario to fine-tune pricing with respect to the product resulting in revenue optimization. The impact analysis model provides a clear framework to avoid rare occurring situations for a profitable business perspective. For example, it helps in forecasting the impact of the guideline changes on the buying behavior of the policyholders.

4. Stringent Compliances

Rules are getting tighter for insurers. Alert triggers for suspicious cases reduce the risk of non-compliance and resulting consequences. Intelligent deviation management with effective credit assessment filters out suspicious activities. High data accuracy is guaranteed by robust master data management along with advanced analytics.

5. Measuring complexity through stress testing

It is one very effective way of determining how a financial firm will perform under severe stress of capital or bad debts. Implementation of stress testing against historical data sets emphasizes on the need for quality assurance. Sensitivity analysis supports real-time output visualization by providing intelligent insights for decision making in insurance through the identification of the most critical parameters.

The increasing deep & broader view towards risk management & other related regulatory compliance in insurance, banking & related financial services has triggered an overall risk culture that can generate the real business value across customer journeys.

The future of risk would lie somewhere with reduced operational cost, human efficiency, improved regulatory compliance, faster & reliable claim settlements contributing to the bank’s profitable growth with higher customer delight.
