eReinsure Experiences Record Growth, Launches New Blockchain Services
Looking to the year ahead, eReinsure also announced that the company will offer a Blockchain service linked to its proven reinsurance platform.
“eReinsure is uniquely positioned to partner with Blockchain technology providers to offer this new service to insurers, reinsurers and brokers who use eReinsure’s system,” said
“Blockchain offers some intriguing capabilities, but in reality, reinsurance specialists need a practical system that works for them and deals with the reality of workflow and data management,” said Best-Devereux. “A number of our clients have expressed interest in Distributed Ledgers but want to retain the familiar negotiation and automation workflow, plus the user interface developed by eReinsure. This gives them an easy path to adopting Blockchain technology within the established eReinsure business network and benefiting from the experience gained since eReinsure launched its first reinsurance platform in 2001. Our objective is to offer an open framework that can allow clients to leverage work on industry standard, readily available, and cost-effective cloud infrastructure – continuing our model of providing competitive service, support and economical process efficiencies for reinsurance.”
Adding a cautionary note regarding Blockchain, Best-Devereux explained: “As and when clients want to move in this direction, there are still many questions to address, including data privacy, identity resolution, immutability, and the legal and regulatory compliance framework. We expect the early implementations to be a collaboration with clients as they and the industry consider the value proposition and relative merits of Blockchain. However, we want to offer the deep experience of the eReinsure team to further the cost-effective and low-risk implementation of this emerging technology.”
