NEW YORK, June 05, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- WTW (NASDAQ: WTW), a leading global advisory, broking, and solutions company, has announced a new collaboration with Guidewire (NYSE: GWRE). This partnership will allow carriers to rapidly integrate WTW and Guidewire’s cloud platform enhancing the sophistication and speed-to-market of pricing, rating, and underwriting.
Customers' demand for more innovative insurance solutions has increased significantly in recent years. This trend is driven by an expanding appetite for new products, a competitive environment requiring new modeling techniques and more granular data, and regulators requiring rating accuracy, transparency, and fairness. These pressure points are pushing the capabilities of pricing and underwriting teams to the limit.
This collaboration will introduce a Ready for Guidewire accelerator between WTW’s Radar analytics software and Guidewire PolicyCenter, resulting in repeatable and rapid integration. Radar has been designed specifically for the insurance sector to create cutting-edge analytics for pricing and underwriting and deploy them to market in real time. This partnership will allow carriers to benefit from WTW’s sustained innovation in proprietary machine-learning algorithms, real-time decision-making, regulatory reporting, speed, and performance.
Gio Smyth, Managing Director and Americas Regional Leader, WTW, Insurance Consulting and Technology, said: “I am very excited by the opportunity to work alongside Guidewire to support carriers globally. Collaborating with Guidewire, one of the leading insurance platforms in the market, offers material benefits to our clients.”
“Our Guidewire integration will enhance the operational efficiency of our mutual clients by reducing implementation time and cost, enabling them to maximize the benefits of Radar,” continued Smyth.
Will Murphy, Vice President, Global Technology Alliances at Guidewire, said: “We’re excited to welcome WTW as a new technology solution partner and look forward to their contribution to the Guidewire Marketplace. The combination of PolicyCenter with WTW’s Radar analytics solution will enable insurers to realize quicker and more accurate underwriting and pricing performance.”
