Sapiens | April 20, 2021
Sapiens Americas, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sapiens International Corporation, a leading global provider of software solutions for the insurance industry, announced today that Co-operative Insurance Companies, which provides insurance for farms, homes, automobiles, and businesses in Vermont and New Hampshire, has chosen Sapiens ReinsurancePro and FinancialPro solutions to transform its financial operations.
Sapiens advanced insurance solutions are being implemented by Co-op to better handle the rising scope and complexities of its insurance policy – efficiently and effectively. Co-op turned to their trusted associate Sapiens for a strategy that addressed two major issues: speed and accuracy. Their current, spreadsheet-driven reinsurance administration process is very manual, which can lead to errors and inefficient resource allocation.
Sapiens ReinsurancePro's robust automation and fully transparent, efficient platform would allow auditable processing, the management of complex reinsurance transactions, and the fast reaction to recent offerings. ReinsurancePro, which was created and designed for the reinsurance sector by some of the industry's top specialists, oversees the full spectrum of reinsurance contracts and operations for all lines of operation. Sapiens' cloud-based approach aligns with Co-corporate op's mandate to house as many systems as possible in the cloud, particularly when it makes economic sense. Sapiens' reinsurance options are used by over 100 insurers worldwide.
Sapiens FinancialPro is accounting software designed for insurers to meet their specific cashflow, statutory, and GAAP reporting criteria, as well as allocation and restructuring requirements. It performs multi-basis accounting, inter-company sales, and financial reporting speed and accuracy. Sapiens insurance specialists assist carriers in gathering and reporting data required to expedite all regulatory procedures.
