Each year, banks and insurers generate billions of customer communications with one simple goal: a more personalized experience for customers. And yet, they are being held back by legacy technologies that are expensive, outmoded, and cannot address new delivery channels or modern privacy and security regulations. Learn how to modernize your customer communications.
6. Supporting high-volume
communications
§ 5B insurance documents are printed and mailed every year
in the US & Europe
§ This number increases to 7B annually in the banking
industry
§ Generated by core insurance systems and document
composition tools
§ Example document types include statements, billings,
notices, reminders, welcome packs, EOBs, policy
documents, renewals, failed payments, mid-term
adjustments, cancellations and claims documentation
“Consumers want more
frequent, meaningful and
personalized
communications.”

define the future of insurance”

7. Addressing modern compliance
mandates
§ General Data Protection
Regulation (GDPR)
§ California Consumer Privacy Act
of 2018
§ Insurance Conduct of Business
(UK)
§ ADA, UK Equality Act, EU Codes
“GDPR went into effect in May 2018 and
requires consent from consumers
before their data may be used. Among
numerous protections, consumers will
need to be informed if their data is
moved outside the European Union,
havetherighttobe“forgotten,” and
will be given a chance to contest the use
of automated algorithms.
Violations come with serious fines—up
to 4 percent of a company’s worldwide
net sales.

to information

customer service solutions

§ Technical skills sets are increasingly difficult to find
9. A smarterapproach
§ Crawford enables print-stream
conversion for AFP, Metacode,
line data, PCL and PostScript to
PDF
§ Fully accessible documents with
PDF/UA, HTML5 and braille
§ Nuxeo provides cloud-native
content management
§ Theresult:a completely
modern alternative for unlocking
your customer communications
“The traditional drivers of cloud computing—cost savings and pay-as-you-consume
contracts—will likely continue to push usage. Yet the next round of adoption will likely be
driven by other key benefits that cloud offers—namely speed, flexibility, and scalability.”
- Deloitte, 2019 Insurance Outlook
