CORE INSURANCE, INSURANCE TECHNOLOGY
Canal Insurance Company | February 16, 2023
Canal Insurance Company has recently announced its partnership with CLARA Analytics to accelerate the resolution of commercial insurance claims with an artificial intelligence interface. CLARA Analytics will optimize commercial insurance claims with the technology of AI.
There is a tremendous increase in claims outcomes of commercial transportation, burdening insurers of the trucking industry. They are forced to search for innovative ways of managing claims so that they can produce better outcomes for their clients. Through the partnership, Canal will access CLARA’s Triage and Litigation modules for its commercial auto claims.
The AI-based insights will monitor these claims and filter those claims which are on the verge of escalation. The Triage module assists insurance claim managers with the best path for the resolution, whereas the Litigation module provides insights for clients to acquire amicable settlements and reduce complicated processes and the cost of litigation.
President and CEO of Canal, Paul Brocklebank, said, “At Canal, we consistently explore innovative ways to drive profitable performance, sustainable growth, and shareholder value.” He added, “As a well-established insurance specialist in commercial transportation, Canal is addressing many of the same challenges facing commercial auto insurers at large. Through advanced data analytics, CLARA provides the expertise and track record to help Canal drive better and more efficient claims outcomes, and this benefits both our customers and the Canal enterprise. We are excited about CLARA as a critical new business partner and extension of the Canal team as we join forces to embrace future opportunities in motor carrier insurance.”

CLAIMS, RISK MANAGEMENT
Shift Technology | March 16, 2023
Shift Technology, a leading provider of AI-driven solutions for the insurance industry, announced on March 15, 2023, that General Insurance Association of Singapore (GIA) would be expanding its use of Shift Claims Fraud Detection to assist its member insurers in detecting travel insurance fraud.
This strategic expansion is a testament to the success of General Insurance Association of Singapore's (GIA) Fraud Management System (FMS). This move comes at an opportune time, with global travel gradually returning to pre-pandemic levels. Shift and GIA have been working together since 2017 to combat insurance fraud. Initially, the collaboration involved the use of Shift Claims Fraud Detection to identify suspicious motor and travel insurance claims. However, due to the significant success achieved in both areas, the solution's use has been expanded to include the detection of various types of travel insurance fraud.
Kai Weng Ho, Chief Executive of GIA, stated, "Recent significant successes in insurance fraud detection using FMS resulted in the conviction of multiple insurance fraudsters. This planned expansion allows us to maximize the potential of the travel module and comes at an opportune time of rising global travel."
He added, "Our collaboration with Shift gives us an important way to detect and manage fraudulent claims at scale. It also augments our sector's existing fraud detection and management efforts."

Jeremy Jawish, CEO and Co-Founder of Shift Technology, remarked, "Fraud is not simply a problem for individual insurers, but rather a challenge for the entire insurance industry, which is why industry-level solutions like ours are so impactful."
He added, "Bad actors do not limit themselves to a single target, especially in the case of organized fraud networks. By providing associations like the GIA with a comprehensive view of what's happening with claims across their membership, fraud detection and mitigation activities are scaled exponentially, to the benefit of all."
