OneConnect and Swiss Re to Partner on Smart Claims to Europe
OneConnect Financial Technology Co., Ltd. ("OneConnect” or the "Company") (NYSE: OCFT) and Swiss Reinsurance Company Ltd. ("Swiss Re”) are joining forces to co-develop a digital end-to-end solution for motor claims handling for the European market, based on artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced data analytics .
The two companies will collaborate to introduce OneConnect’s Smart Claims Solution to Europe. The solution leverages OneConnect's AI-based image-recognition technology and Swiss Re's risk expertise and market know-how. The technology provides an efficient, completely digitalized service in seconds for significantly improved user experience. Based on photos of the vehicle damage, the solution identifies the appropriate repair strategy and estimates the cost of repair within minutes, offering immediate cash payouts and additional services such as directing drivers to a repair garage. Policyholders can enjoy an easier, faster and more transparent process. Insurance companies benefit from process efficiency and insights from the analysis of damages and repairs.
Xiao Jing, Chief Scientist of Ping An Group, said: "Image-based damage recognition technology has successfully enabled Ping An to ease into claim digitalization and automation. This solution allows our customers to enjoy touchless claim service. I am delighted to see this proven technology taken to Europe by OneConnect and Swiss Re.”
OneConnect believes that the cooperation with Swiss Re is a significant milestone for both parties, as a joint effort to form a vehicle owner claims service platform for European insurance companies.
