Relativity6 announced today that it has partnered with Duck Creek Technologies, the intelligent solutions provider defining the future of property and casualty (P&C) and general insurance, to offer best-in-class industry classification. Via the Duck Creek Platform, Relativity6 allows insurers to instantly classify any business by its 6-digit NAICS, ISO GL, or NCCI codes. By providing high accuracy and speed around industry class codes, insurance carriers can instantly determine if a potential risk is truly in appetite, price policies more accurately, and ultimately reduce premium leakage.
“In a hardening market, it’s absolutely vital that carriers only bind policies that are actually in appetite. In today’s economy, businesses are constantly changing the services they provide, and knowing what a business is doing right now is crucial for carriers to reduce premium leakage and improve loss ratios. Today over 50% of risks are misclassified, leading to extreme inefficiencies in pricing and overall risk selection. Relativity6 is the leading industry classification company, providing classification data to some of the world’s largest carriers today. We are thrilled to bring our best in class, AI-powered industry classification technology to the Duck Creek ecosystem,” said Alan Ringvald, CEO of Relativity6.
