DetectX® for insurance

Stay compliant. Detect and reduce fraud. Strengthen customer relationships. DetectX® is a scalable AI platform tailored to the unique challenges of the insurance sector, so that insurers can optimise policies, improve claims handling efficiency, reduce claim fraud risk and create value from customer insight.

What insurers are up against

Four pressures every insurer’s compliance team will recognise, and how DetectX® answers each one.

None of them is new, and none of them goes away.

  1. Policies outlive the checks

    A policy can run for decades. A policyholder who was clear at inception may be listed tomorrow, so the whole book has to be screened again every time a list changes.

    Keep the whole book current

    When sanctions or PEP lists change, the whole book is screened again in batch, and every policyholder’s risk class is recalculated overnight.

  2. Payouts to people you never onboarded

    Claims and surrender payments go to beneficiaries and third parties the insurer never onboarded, and every one has to be checked before the money leaves.

    Check whoever gets paid

    A beneficiary is screened as soon as they are named or changed, and the parties to every claims payment are checked before it is released. A hit is held for a decision.

  3. A bank’s duties on a smaller team

    Insurers carry the same screening duties as a bank, often with a smaller compliance team, and most alerts turn out to be false positives.

    Clear alerts with a small team

    Matches are scored, so only real candidates become alerts. Evidence sits on the alert, and a cleared match is not raised again until the list entry changes.

  4. Every decision must be explained

    Making the right call is not enough. The insurer has to show the supervisor what it saw, what it decided, who decided it and why.

    Answer the supervisor

    Every step, comment and sign-off sits on the alert, every policyholder is rated every night, and reports are built from data already held.

Five duties, one platform

Every insurance duty runs on the same platform.

Each has its own DetectX® solutions, and all of them share one policyholder record, one set of lists, one alert queue and one audit trail. Pick a duty to see what answers it.

Why insurers choose DetectX®

Five duties should not mean five systems.

When screening policyholders, checking payees and scoring risk run in separate tools, each one keeps its own lists, its own queue and its own record. DetectX® runs them on one platform, so every alert lands in one queue and every decision in one audit trail.

Illustrative example. Which solutions an insurer runs is configured per institution.

Built for the insurer you are

Every line of business carries a different risk.

A life insurer, a claims-heavy non-life book and a reinsurer face the same rules but very different cases. Pick the one that sounds like yours and start from there.

Suggested starting points. Every DetectX® solution is available to every insurer. Examples use synthetic data.

Life and pensions

Long contracts, many parties.

Policies run for decades. Premiums can arrive in one sum, a policy can be surrendered early, and the beneficiary may change long after the policy was written. Knowing who the money will reach is the hard part.

  • Policyholders, premium payers and beneficiaries
  • Single premiums and early surrenders
  • A beneficiary changed years after inception
Non-life

Many policies, a small team.

Motor, property and liability portfolios hold many policies and few compliance staff. Claims are paid to policyholders, repairers and other third parties, often quickly.

  • Every policyholder at inception
  • Claims paid to third parties
  • A small team, the same duties as a bank
Reinsurance and specialty

Cedents, cargo and vessels.

Reinsurers and specialty insurers deal with ceding companies and brokers in many countries, and insure risks that move: ships, aircraft and cargo, sometimes near sanctioned waters.

  • Cedents and brokers in many countries
  • Vessels and cargo against sanctions lists
  • What the news says about counterparties
Brokers and intermediaries

Business through people you do not employ.

Much of the business arrives through brokers, agents and distribution partners. Their conduct becomes your risk, and their customers become yours.

  • Brokers and agents before they are appointed
  • Their customers, screened like your own
  • Every review kept for the supervisor
