HSBC launches UnderwriteMe’s Underwriting Rules Engine

HSBC Life has launched UnderwriteMe’s Underwriting Rules Engine (URE) which helps underwriters with protection.

The engine gives underwriters the ability to change questions and gives help text and rules for each channel.

Working with HSBC Life and OPAL, this implementation took just over three months from project implementation to go live.

Martin Werth, chief executive of UnderwriteMe, said: “We’re delighted to extend our partnership with HSBC Life.

“The biggest challenge is the sales process and this collaboration will simplify and speed it up, supporting HSBC Life’s customers and intermediaries.

“Our URE continues to be the market-leading rules engine across the UK and Ireland and is supported by a very exciting 2020 roadmap.”

This project also included collaborative working between UnderwriteMe and the OPAL group.

Eoin Lyons, chief executive of OPAL Group, added: “We are delighted with the collaboration between HSBC Life, UnderwriteMe and OPAL.

“We look forward to seeing the results of this delivery and hope it will have a positive impact on the protection industry.”
