UPDATE: WTW debuts new Insurance Pricing and Underwriting Technology to accelerate speed to market in Guidewire PolicyCenter
NEW YORK, Feb. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- WTW (NASDAQ: WTW), a leading global advisory, broking, and solutions company, announced the latest advancement in its Radar rating and analytics engine with the launch of its Rating, Pricing, and Underwriting acceleratori for Guidewire.
Radar, WTW’s external rating engine, is an end-to-end solution designed specifically for the insurance sector. It provides cutting-edge analytics and decision-making for pricing and underwriting, deployed to the market in real time. Radar’s new Guidewire accelerator will streamline the integration of Radar with PolicyCenter, Guidewire’s policy administration system, allowing carriers to realize the benefits of Radar faster. The accelerator uses a highly innovative approach that draws Guidewire product definitions directly into Radar’s pricing environment, massively expediting the integration process.
Customers' demand for more innovative insurance solutions has increased significantly in recent years. Pricing and underwriting teams have been pushed to the limit by the need to provide new products in a competitive market while balancing regulatory requirements for rating accuracy, transparency, and fairness. Radar is a proven solution that delivers success for insurers and their customers in this challenging environment.
Gio Smyth, Managing Director and Americas Regional Leader, Insurance Consulting and Technology, WTW, said: “WTW’s integration between Guidewire PolicyCenter and our Radar technology will enhance the operational efficiency of our shared clients by reducing implementation time and cost, enabling them to maximize the benefits of Radar. The injection of game-changing speed and accuracy into the pricing process makes it possible to update market prices in minutes rather than days, weeks, or months, giving insurers a competitive edge.”
Will Murphy, Vice President, Global Technology Alliances, Guidewire, said: “With the launch of the Radar Accelerator from WTW, our shared customers can now quickly leverage a valuable rating solution that enables insurers to realize quicker and more accurate underwriting and pricing performance.”
