Q . WHICH ACTIVITY ARE YOU MOST LOOKING FORWARD TO DOING WHEN THE PANDEMIC IS OVER ?
» Travelling to the tropics . There is something magical about the flora and fauna in tropical regions where enormous and colourful plants burst out of every forgotten corner and crevice . With a spot of luck I ’ ll be spending my 40th birthday next year in Mauritius with my family , as there appears to be some light at the end of the Covid tunnel
Q . IS THERE A PERSONAL ACHIEVEMENT FROM THE PAST 12 MONTHS OF WHICH YOU ARE PARTICULARLY PROUD ?
» We are very pleased with our customers ' feedback from the launch of our Connectivity suite in Q1 this year . The path to automation has many steps but the simple integrations for data enrichment and model processing systems represents a significant milestone . These connectors enable the seamless flow of real-time data between tightly coupled business processes , resulting in a huge leap in the confidence carriers have in the accuracy of their risk reporting .
Q . WHAT INSPIRES YOU IN INSURTECH TODAY ?
» The trend I am most excited about in insurtech is the increased adoption of IoT and enabled devices . It is clear that the benefits to customers of having insurance seamlessly integrated with physical products and for carriers to price risk based on personalised data is a win / win on both sides of the equation . At Quantemplate we see our role as the integration and communication network through which this big data can flow from devices to the finance , actuarial and modelling teams within insurers . Our platform was architected to handle data at this scale and although we expect it to be a few years before IoT becomes ubiquitous we are already seeing data volumes on our network picking up substantially , with billions of rows of exposure data flowing through our pipes every month .
