InsureX is being developed to address the issues related to the trading and management of insurance products. In the current model, insurance products are traded via third parties such as brokers and intermediaries. Although there is a need for these third-parties at times, they add to the cost, time and complexity of the process.

The major challenge that the industry faces is that currently, all parties involved store copies of the same data related to various products. This includes data related to the insurance processes that manage risk and premiums. This is a significant amount of data passing between various parties and stored multiple times on multiple systems. This makes it difficult to share the information between all the parties involved and may compromise the integrity of the data.

The InsureX Solution

Taking advantage of blockchain technology and its decentralised nature, InsureX is developing a better solution for all parties involved in the trading of insurance products. In their whitepaper they explain as follows:

“InsureX offers a disruptive environment which will be beneficial to the currently outdated insurance sector. Participants in this marketplace are able to transact business in a highly efficient, secure and consistent manner with easy access to historical data and valuable market insight. The InsureX platform uses blockchain technology to streamline the process between buyers and sellers of insurance products. Not only does it provide a place to find and trade insurance, but a platform to manage the downstream processes related to programs, policies, premiums and claims.”

The InsureX Platform Key Features

List and Market Insurance Products – The InsureX platform will allow sellers to list their products on an open market of buyers or a specific group. It is their choice. They can select a group of buyers that they feel will best match their offering. As mentioned above, as the data can now be stored in a decentralised nature, the ability to share the needed information will make for easier negotiation.

Transaction Execution – Again, because of the blockchain technology, once an agreement is come to by the parties involved, it is added to the distributed ledger. There can be no disputing the transaction once listed.

Portfolio Management – The portfolio management of the InsureX product will allow a user to get a complete overview of their portfolio with the ability to sort by variables such as risk, premium, claims and performance.

Market Insight – InsureX is able to provide a detailed overview of market activity across regions, market sectors, exposures etc. The ability to aggregate statistics gives an unparalleled view of the insurance market
