What is Embedded Insurance?

Embedded Insurance involves integrating insurance solutions into non-insurance products and services offered by third-party partners at the point of sale. This approach simultaneously addresses multiple customer needs and includes distributing insurance products under the brand of a non-insurance partner, making it a seamless part of the purchase journey and value chain.

What is FiDa?

FiDA (Financial Data Access) is a European Union regulation focused on enabling secure and standardized sharing of financial data. It allows consumers to authorize third-party access to their data, which in turn fosters innovation and the creation of personalized services. Insurers can leverage this data to provide customized products, enhancing risk assessment and improving customer experience.
