Sapiens and Munich Re Collaborate to Assist Insurers in Targeting the Commercial Insurance Market
Sapiens International Corporation, a leading global provider of software solutions for the insurance industry, announced today a collaboration with Munich Re, one of the world's leading providers of reinsurance, primary insurance, and insurance-related risk solutions, to provide technology-led consultancy and services to enable primary insurers to serve better the commercial insurance market (small and medium-sized businesses).
The commercial insurance market in the United Kingdom is one of the fastest-growing insurance sectors in the country. However, until recently, this market has been underserved, with few insurance packages suited to the segment's specific demands and expectations. Sapiens and Munich Re will collaborate with insurers to help them better target and address this market promptly. The combined solution aims to provide insurers with a modular, scalable technology refresh that allows them to tailor services to the expanding SME sector and actively participate in the post-COVID-19 recovery period.
The Sapiens/Munich Re collaboration complements the recent rise in government-backed and retail banking SME support initiatives, such as backed-loan schemes, increased infrastructure spending, tax exemptions, and restart grants, which are fueling the recovery. According to aggregated Companies House registrations, over 200,000 new companies have been established in the UK this year, with the bulk centered on retail, business services, and construction. Because of the industry's push toward digital, coverage explanation, flexible offers, verified self-selection, and how commercial insurers adapt their customer journey are all important.
