F&G, a US-based insurance company, has entered into a partnership with Accenture to bolster its technology infrastructure to drive growth in its annuity business.
The partnership will see F&G integrate Accenture’s Life Insurance and Annuity Platform (ALIP) into its operations, leveraging cloud technology to optimise its processes and improve service delivery.
The initiative is part of F&G’s broader cloud modernisation strategy, which seeks to advance its annuity offerings and elevate the experiences of its customers, agents, and distributors.
ALIP’s automated and configurable processes will enable F&G to handle exceptions more effectively and provide tailored capabilities to its network of financial representatives throughout the US, the tech vendor said.
ALIP, a cloud-native digital insurance platform, equips life insurance and annuity providers with tools for product and business development, underwriting, policy administration, and claims, all supported by data analytics.
The platform can be deployed in modules or as a comprehensive solution, aligning with insurers’ broader migration strategies.
