Report Profiles 15 Data Providers for the Age of Data Super-Abundance
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Insurance, like many data-centric industries, is undergoing a paradigm
shift, from operating in an age of information scarcity to one of
information super-abundance. While insurers used to need to devote
significant resources to gathering data about prospective risks and
claims, more data than ever is now available on-demand (and at lower
cost) from commercial sources.
The new report by research and advisory firm Novarica, Novarica

15 major data services providers that serve the insurance industry. A
free preview is available online at: http://www.novarica.com/data_services_nmn2012/
“Our insurer CIO clients are being tasked by underwriting, marketing,
claims, and other areas to integrate third-party data sources with core
production systems and analytics environments,” notes Martina Conlon, a
principal at Novarica and lead author of the report. “This report is
designed to give them an overview of the types of data, cost models, and
technical details of major services providers.”
