The Insurer’s capability to assess Risk or to access a Loss will depend on two key factors:

• Ability to capture complete and accurate data in any required format

• Ability to perform a deep analysis of available multi-format data

Data Capture

Companies such as Airware provide all the technology required to get to the “Risk” location and use onboard sensors to capture all relevant data (Video and images, temperature, humidity …)

Data Analysis

Companies such as Airphrame are specializing in 2D and 3D imaging, providing capabilities relevant Risk and Loss assessment

Source: CalIT2, USCD

Drone technology with onboard cameras and sensors to capture Risk information, with impact on efficiency and effectiveness (specially around big structures)

Ability to convert captured data into a digital representation of the Risk for deep analysis and accurate assessment (even comparing pre and post CAT images)

Real time remote access to Risk allows best talent to be directly involved

Aerial and satellite images digitize physical assets enabling new ways of risk and loss assessments for insurers

Applying data & analytics to Internal Audit

Internal Audit organizations that are transforming in pace with the business are more advanced in their use of data analytics, including its wider application:

RiskIdentification

Audit Planning

ContinuousAuditing

ContinuousMonitoring

82% of Chief Account Executives reported

they use analytics in some audits for audit execution but

only 48% use analytics for making

scoping decisions and only 43% use

analytics to complete their risk assessments.

Applying data & analytics to Internal Audit

When fully integrated, the data analytics initiative is not a program; rather, the techniques are fully embedded into all elements of the audit lifecycle.

Internal Audit Analytics in Action

Profiling Sampling Testing Monitoring

Profiling: Analyze transactional activity and develop a baseline understanding which can be used to identify outliers.

“Intelligent” sample selection: Identify specific anomalous, unusual, or higher-risk transactions for follow-up and investigation.

Exception testing: Identify transactions that specifically violate company policies or represent internal control breakdowns.

Analytic

Monitoring: Operationalizing analytics created in prior phases and test risk areas in a sustainable and repeatable way.

Understand data completeness and quality Set standard benchmark to evaluate totals.

Test 100% of all transactions that exceed Company's policy limits or activity thresholds.

Create continuous monitoring solution around a specific use case providing access to Audit and Compliance as well as business stakeholders.

What our clients are saying

Digital Agenda

Scale and Efficiency Legacy Platforms

New Ways of Working

We have a heavy reliance on a complicated landscape of legacy systems and process

that does not support our plan

We must meet our demand to improve efficiency and operational excellence to support scale and speed

We must rapidly introduce new products, services, with a focus on fast experience that demands front-

to-back STP with automation

Disruption to traditional operating models – we must work more with more agility

and intelligently

* STP = Straight through processing

Robotic Process Automation (RPA – known as ‘automation or robotics’) is a category of software configured “robots” that sit on top of existing systems to perform tasks normally performed by a human

Creates a virtual digital workforce able to mimic human execution

Undertakes structured, repeatable and computer based tasks

Interacts non-invasively with existing applications and systems

Captures all details of the process and stores it for potential auditing

Uses workflow enabled interaction with people.

Something that can entirely replace humans

Something that replicates human cognitive functions… yet

Purely just another cost play

Although a digital workforce provides great benefits, it also fundamentally changes the operating paradigm and associated risk profile – Why?

Knowledge Management… what happens when staff leave

their roles?

Up/Down Stream…Will there be an impact

to other processes

Organisational Change…How will this impact my team?

Training…How do we operate the Robots and this new way of working?

Systems Change Management…

Who makes sure the Robots keep working with the systems change?

Business Continuity…how do I continue running my business if the Robots stop?

RPA and Cognitive Science/AI efforts often fail because they do not address specific operating model, governance and change management requirements

Oversight…Who is making sure the Robots are working?BPO/3rd Parties…

Will this impact our contracts/KPIs? Operational Risk…

Will this change my operational risk profile?

CyberSecurity…Are these Robots safe?

A digital workforce fundamentally changes the nature of your operations and touches every part of the organisation –Governance and change management are essential to the success over the long term
