New Features Help to Accelerate Time-to-Market

Flexible Insurance Services Office (ISO) loss costs templates, available via the new Oracle Insurance Rating Express feature, help facilitate compliance with corporate and industry standards, save weeks of development time, reduce the likelihood of rating errors and increase speed-to-market for new rate programs.

Templates feature pre-loaded ISO content.

Users can also create custom deviations from the pre-built template content and maintain those customizations as new template versions are updated.

Oracle Insurance Insbridge’s new automated rating template reconciliation helps eliminate time consuming manual processes, potentially saving hundreds of hours and avoiding weeks of delays in implementing new templates. Accuracy of new template versions also is improved.

Oracle Insurance Insbridge requires no programming, so business users can manage the applications themselves — from updating tables to creating surcharges and discounts and more.
