Our proprietary, analytics-based approach to handle unplaced business.
Your company may share similarities with your competitors that have 3% to 20% of life insurance applications postponed, withdrawn, or retired as incomplete due to missing information or requirements that preclude definitive risk assessment. Medical requirements are most often missing but sometimes so are non-medical requirements, typically some sort of financial documentation.
Take control of your unplaced business by making an offer on cases that would otherwise be retired, incomplete or postponed. Refer them to Gen Re for a 2nd Look.
Since many carriers have underwriting and medical departments that may lack extensive substandard underwriting experience, and despite their best efforts, they are leaving unplaced millions of dollars of profitable premium on the table. Our analysis estimates the present value of lost future premiums can be up to $100,000 per case.
Underwriters are concerned about passing their internal and reinsurance underwriting audits. If a doctor’s report says an age-appropriate test is recommended and the client doesn’t have it done – the underwriter’s response is to postpone. Can't locate a pathology report from a cancer history years ago? – postpone.
Unplaced business may cause your agents to get frustrated and explore relationships with other carriers. Recruiting new agents may become more of a challenge. Your company could suffer reputational damage and unnecessarily high unit costs.
Any product for which your company and Gen Re have an active treaty in place.
