Accelerate your insurance transformation with Zühlke

With revenue and market share under threat, insurers must fundamentally rethink their customer value propositions and how they add value in the daily lives of policy holders.

By embedding modern technologies in their processes and harnessing the customer data and access of ecosystem partners, insurers can unlock models that serve the changing needs of markets, customers, and colleagues.

This might sound complex, but it doesn’t need to be. With our unique ability to join the dots between technology, data, people, and processes, we’re ideally placed to help you run smarter today as you lay the foundations for tomorrow’s insurance models.

  • Become more attractive in the fight for talent

  • Fight pressure on margins effectively

    The public perception is that high commissions are causing premium increases in the insurance business. Alongside this, there are increasing regulatory costs, global inflation, and new players offering fully digital business models, creating a hazardous mix. All of these factors raise the age-old question: how can you maintain margins in large portfolios?

Get the basics right

In the digital world, none of this is possible without proactive access to complete, accurate, and consistent data. But what if most of the data is locked away across multiple legacy systems? Or, if it’s of questionable quality, limited comparability, and with compromised data security? With Zühlke, you don’t have to worry. We work with you to make your systems and your organisation fit for a digital future – with cyber-resilience and data protection built in.
