  • Very rightly said - Grow, merge or wither.
    The insurance sector has always been at the center of merger and acquisition spree. Of course the scale of this merger is huge. As always, at the time of any M&A activity, the focus is on what systems are in use in both the organizations and which of these lend themselves to a longer life span based on adaptability, configurability, performance, user interfaces and ease of use. In case of insurance sector, the focus also shifts towards the financial reporting and compliance aspects of these systems. All of these factors determine the duration for which these systems continue to run in parallel before one of them gets sunset. In my experience, I have seen these systems surviving for much longer periods because of some very specific challenges due to which the policy or the claim data is highly difficult to be transferred over into the new system of choice. But that keeps on adding to the unnecessary cost of operation.
    For a merger this size, and the policy data which spans over so many decades, it will be an interesting challenge to see final roadmap.
