Challenges of Insurance Marketplace
• Explosive growth of data and of the analytics technologies
and capabilities that can be used to transform that data
into insights
• Revolution of transforming decades old legacy systems to
modern core administrative platforms
• Building and implementing a data management solution
on insurance core systems is both challenging and time
consuming
• Delivery of data-driven transformation projects is very
complex, risky and quite often do not meet the
stakeholder objectives
Significant shift from
product-centric to
customer-centric
organizations
5. 55
Industry Perspective
• Leveraging analytics to be more competitive, nimble and responsive
− Intense competition with regional and national players for business
− Organizations must make themselves more attractive to do business with (customers/agents) with differentiating capabilities
• Digital transformation leaves many insurance companies with unanswered questions
− How do I integrate core customer, product, policy and claims data from multiple legacy and modern core systems into a centralized
data repository?
− What is the best approach for my company in governing and delivering the enterprise wide Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)?
− How can I accelerate the implementation speed and roll out reporting and analytical solutions in an incremental manner to reduce
risk?
• Opportunity to integrate systems into a common enterprise data management solution
− Shift to external data - today 5% external data and 95% internal systems
− Future state to predict what customer could do before they do it (Lapsing, Canceling, Cross-Selling)

The Role of Qlik and Qlik Sense
Qlik Sense is an enabler of enterprise class self-service and guided analytics, and is helping to
provide faster speed to market through intuitive design, a self-service approach, and streamlined
development principles than have been seen with competitor toolsets.
Qlik Sense as the single reporting platform lowers overall architecture complexity and total cost of
ownership.
With the proper controls to lock down any given report, QVF, or QVD to users, and the ability to
continue to create and publish operational reports, Qlik Sense can satisfy the needs of both the
Finance organization and the rest of the business (actuarial, claims, etc.).
