Restatement of overall A&S Objectives

• Rationalise and streamline business processes, specifically:

–Speed up premium and claims payment

–Remove reliance on paper

–Reduce errors and reconciliation by capturing richer data once

–Enable back office rationalisation

– Introduce flexibility - process the way the business requires rather than the business being driven by constraints

• Implement international standards for the communication and processing of accounting & settlement data (the ACORD XML RLC standards)

• Provide a firm base for the future

Repository

• Broker loads slip, LPANs and supporting documentation to repository thereby removing paper (and vans)

– Three methods:– Direct Load– Email– DRI Message

• Carriers can gain access and view and download documents

• DRI enabled repository that also enables direct loading and enquiries to:

–deliver documents to Xchanging Ins-Sure Services for checking

–deliver documents directly between brokers and carriers i.e. in support of non-bureau or P2P processes

Repository Benefits and Implications

• Faster turnaround times for documentation since “van time” is eliminated.

• No “van time” and speedier query resolution means signed lines available quicker

• Speedier resolution of queries will reduce the volume of rejections

• DRI functionality consistent with ECF. Brokers have options on how to connect, DRI Push, DRI Pull or Direct load (or additionally email for delivery to Xchanging for checking)

• Gives insurers access to a copy of the slip and other premium submission documentation in the repository

• Carriers can be notified as a slip is loaded on the repository thereby allowing signed lines to be communicated sooner, thus allowing speedier exposure management

• Utility function of the repository, without XIS processing, allows broker to distribute documents in a controlled manner to specified parties
