Zurich Launches New Suite of Solutions to Power Digitally Embedded Insurance

Zurich Insurance Group announced the launch of a new suite of technology capabilities and insurance expertise to provide partners and their customers with a refreshed, seamless and elevated approach to digitally embedded insurance across all Asian markets where it operates.

The suite of solutions, Zurich Edge, supports end-to-end customer journeys encompassing quotes, purchasing, servicing, and claims where customer interactions are fully digitised and strategically embedded into a partners’ ecosystem.

Partners of Zurich Edge will also be able to benefit from the Zurich Global Ventures’ specialised services, and gain access to its global API marketplace Zurich eXchange to enable faster integration of solutions.

Zurich’s regional portfolio already spans over 200 partnerships across six markets, with leaders in industries such as retail, travel, banking, fintech, e-commerce, automotive and telecommunications.

The use and application of digitally embedded protection solutions have grown exponentially as partner companies seek to integrate distinctive offerings into their online ecosystems and provide customers with a streamlined one-stop-shop experience.

In line with this, embedded insurance channels are expected to make up more than 30% of all P&C insurance transactions globally by 2028.
