Verisk Reimagines Insurance Product Innovation with New Rating Engine

JERSEY CITY, N.J., April 11, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Insurers can transform the complex process of developing new commercial lines products with the power and convenience of a new rating engine from Verisk (Nasdaq: VRSK), a leading global data analytics and technology provider.

Instead of investing extensive time and resources into gathering, evaluating and installing rating updates, the new, cloud-based rating engine, known as Rating-as-a-Service (RaaS), offers a streamlined process. Insurers send applicable rating inputs to Verisk via API, which are then applied to Verisk’s loss costs and rating algorithms to generate a quotable premium. Insurers can then apply deviations to make premium adjustments and customize unique insurance offerings.

“Rating commercial insurance is complex and staying current with frequently changing loss costs and rating factors can be expensive and time-consuming,” said Ron Beiderman, senior vice president of core lines products at Verisk. “Our RaaS solution delivers the most current rating information from Verisk into insurer workflows reducing cost, increasing efficiency and boosting speed to market.”

RaaS can help insurers more easily customize their pricing. Insurers can also expand the solution’s reach by integrating it with other Verisk solutions that support product development, underwriting automation and portfolio assessment.      

RaaS is available for businessowners (BOP), crime, general liability and workers’ compensation, as well commercial auto, inland marine, property and umbrella.
