Equisoft Announces Successful Implementation of its Fully Integrated Insurance Platform at Hellenic Life
By providing a high degree of flexibility, configurability and automation, the new end-to-end solution will enable the European insurer to easily evolve its product offering, drive operational efficiency and streamline customer experience, while keeping up with regulatory compliance.
CYPRUS, Jan. 26, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Equisoft, a global technology company with over 25 years of experience in the insurance and wealth management industries, proudly announced today the successful implementation of its modern, end-to-end policy administration platform for European life insurer, Hellenic Life.
Hellenic Life is the life insurance arm of Hellenic Bank Group, one of the largest banking and financial institutions in Cyprus with over 20 years of experience in the market. The company proposes a comprehensive product offering across a wide range of business lines.
The first phase of the project, in which Equisoft was also responsible for the Data Migration of over 80,000 policies from multiple source systems, was successfully achieved in collaboration with Oracle, as well as Newcytech, a leading IT systems integrator in Cyprus, and Inplenion.
The new platform features Equisoft's advanced front-end tools for quotes and illustrations (Equisoft/illustrate), electronic application (Equisoft/apply) and self-service portal. Our core administration capability is enabled by the Oracle Insurance Policy Administration (OIPA) system, along with an enterprise document generation solution, Oracle Documaker. The solution delivery also includes a new accounting system, Netsuite. All of these facilities were deployed in the Oracle Cloud. Collectively these capabilities have created a seamless and scalable solution to support the entire policy lifecycle, from client on-boarding, to new business, policy services, claims, reinsurance, reporting, commission, as well as financial reporting.
"We are very proud of our transition to the digital era. It's our strategic vision for delivering product innovation and customer satisfaction which served as the catalyst for this digital transformation initiative." said Hellenic Life's General Manager, Mr. Andreas Papadatos. "Looking ahead, we did not want our existing systems to limit our efforts to meet customer evolving expectations and lifestyle needs. We wanted to be agile and improve our overall flexibility and functions. That is why we opted for a modern and scalable solution that would provide us full control of our product lifecycle and help us streamline our operations and customer journey."
"Customer experience has become a key driver for digital transformation across the insurance industry," said Simon Richardson, Vice President, EMEA & APAC, Equisoft. ''This is what motivates insurers to improve their productivity, accelerate new product launches and offer a more flexible and modern experience. Following the arrival of Equisoft in the United Kingdom in 2021, with the acquisition of pension and investment powerhouse Altus, this new partnership with Hellenic Life strengthens Equisoft's resolute focus and commitment to the European financial industry. That is why we are extremely proud of the platform that we're delivering for Hellenic Life and honored to be partnering with them on this exciting initiative."
