Insurance providers are no strangers to investing in IT, with more and more being spent every year. This is a good thing since the lack of urgency when it comes to digitalisation in recent years is now beginning to come back to haunt companies. Processes are being actively rebuilt, modernised and the application landscape is even being completely renewed in some cases. This applies first and foremost to insurance sales application processes, which I would like to introduce to you in this blog post.

Mastering variant configuration requires teamwork between designers, software developers and IT specialists. How can this work successfully? Ideally, integrated systems are modular and consist of authoring systems and modelling tools, configurators and frameworks, frontend and backend, workflow engines and integration modules. In this blog post, we take a look behind the scenes of the individual components and present their potential for optimisations.

By creating the opening balance sheet on climate protection, Robert Habeck, Germany’s Federal Minister for Economics and Climate Action, has made it clear that there is still a lot to be done to achieve Germany’s climate targets. We have taken a look at the paper presented by Habeck and summarised the most important points in our blog post.

Whether it arrives on paper or as a PDF, vast amounts of information reach our banks via the documents they receive (digital or analogue). In order to make this information usable for further processing in digital processes, the relevant information must be read out correctly and passed on to the right place in the process. This blog post is about how we can reliably perform this process and others for our customers using text extraction.

Managing team members remotely is something that we have had to deal with more and more during the pandemic. Remote working results in physical distance between teams, which affects communication. In my blog post, I will give you tips on how to maintain communication within your team and overcome the challenges posed by being in different locations.

There is still very little data sharing going on in today’s insurance industry. Obstacles to this include strict and often unclear regulations, reluctance to share data or the difficulty involved in calculating the value of data in advance. Gaia-X offers insurance providers enormous potential. I will explain what that potential is in my blog post.

At the beginning of the global pandemic, the switch to mobile working was another wake-up call for many companies to invest more in digitalisation. A complete integration of all company processes into a few central systems often requires very high investments and can rarely be realised in a short amount of time. One possible solution to this situation is robotic process automation (or RPA). We explain what this is all about in our blog post.

You’ve probably heard a lot about the Online Access Act, but what is it exactly? Why is the Online Access Act important for Germany? What are the specific challenges and how implementation is progressing? I will answer these questions in my blog post.

An efficient and flexible design of the IT systems is the basic prerequisite for high-performance banking operations. Even though the modernisation of IT is a great challenge, a benefit- and customer-oriented modernisation of the IT landscape is a mandatory prerequisite for more efficiency, customer orientation and sustainability of banks. In my blog post, I explain how core banking systems are brought up to the latest digital standards. Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)
