Data Enrichment Widens Insights on Customers and Risks
Correlating External Data With Insurance Data
There is an abundance of external data available today which can offer value,in gaining greater customer and risk insights and in identifying opportunities associated with your products.
The IDS Analytics solution enables you to enrich your data with external data to empower better decision making, for example;
- Commercial and market information can tell you, how well the business or sector is performing and help you identify fraudulent behaviors by analysing the close relationship between business performance and claims activities or buying patterns and claims for instance with mobile phone insurance.
- For MGA’s in the Property Insurance sector, the number of burglaries per head of a postal area and the trend as to whether this has been increasing or decreasing in recent months, which could have a direct influence on the rating of premium for contents insurance. Or how about tracking policy holders in flood risk areas, even when they declared they were not? Would your business discuss premium credit terms to a company with an adverse Companies House status?
- To ensure marketing campaigns are better targeted, enrichment of your customers can help you better understand their demographics or the commercial sector they operate in and therefore their needs. Do you know how long your commercial customers have been in business? Do your campaigns consider customer life-stage requirements and spending power?
Examples of Public and Private External Data Sources
- Commercial / Company data
- Flood risk areas
- Crime trend rates
- Individual, demographic, and lifestyle info.
- Location and property info.
- Risk information
- Nationwide market information
IDS can ensure the data is cleansed and in the correct format for loading into your dashboards.
