Reconfirming our commitment to delivering business efficiencies that are simple to use, we have expanded our Risk Researcher premium validation solution to support Asteron. Risk Researcher users can now source real-time binding quotes for the Asteron Life Guard risk product range.
Risk Researcher premium validation was introduced in July 2009 as an initiative to provide advisors with the ability to undertake their risk research and quote for a policy at the same time. At its launch, we supported integration to CommInsure’s premium engine. Soon after, validation of Zurich risk products was added.
This development has the support of life insurers, who back IRESS’ efforts to reduce complexity and inefficiency in the adviser workflow, when writing insurance business. We are committed to increasing the number of life insurers with connectivity to our premium validation solution, with the aim of having coverage of the entire market.
“The opportunity for an adviser to have binding premium quotes with no re-keying into our own quoting software is tangible." Andrew Walsh, Managing Director - IRESS Market Technology
