Congratulations to RSA, Winners of the Treasury Today's Adam Smith Awards - "One to Watch 2012"
14 Jun 2012
London, 14 June 2012: Xchanging (XCH:LSE), the business process and technology services provider and integrator and Deutsche Bank are pleased to announce that their client, RSA Insurance Group (RSA), has been recognised in the prestigious Treasury Today Adam Smith Awards 2012.
This category includes any solution which is in the pipeline, has been implemented as a direct result of macroeconomic events or is particularly innovative. Previous winners include HP, Google and Adidas.
RSA are working alongside Xchanging and their partners on a new and innovative netting and settlement solution for the global insurance market, and will be one of the first insurance companies in the world to take part in the pilot programme.
The netting and settlement solution is to design, deliver and implement a centralised, multi-currency engine to drive processing efficiency, capital efficiency and control into the management of the premium and claims flows between global cedents / brokers and carriers.
William McDonnell, Group Financial Controller at RSA, comments: "We are delighted to have been recognised by Treasury Today as pilot partner for this pioneering solution. We are enthusiastic about its potential to generate a range of significant benefits both for us and for the global insurance market. This award is a testament to that potential."
Designed by Xchanging, powered by Deutsche Bank
Xchanging and Deutsche Bank are working together, supported by project managers Apex Business Consulting to develop the new service. With support from the International Underwriting Association and ACORD, Xchanging and Deutsche Bank are validating the potential benefits of a service similar to those which support the London Market, but for global open market insurers. RSA will be one of the first to test this solution beginning with a pilot implementation in Europe during 2012.
The solution uses Xchanging mapping, translation and message handling technology, proven in the London Market to enable mass participation, alongside Deutsche Bank's global transaction banking, clearing and FX capability, to power the netting and settlement process and facilitate a single netted payment for all counterparty liabilities in each settlement cycle.
