Benefits

Improve Underwriting Performance

Duck Creek Policy delivers consistent underwriting outcomes through rules-based processing during straight-through processing or high-touch workflows. The openness of the Duck Creek Platform enables carriers to integrate data and predictive analytics like fraud detection, property or vehicle imports, or cyber risks that improve risk selection and pricing.

Improve Customer Satisfaction

Rapidly responding to shifting customer needs with new or updated products is made possible with the configurability and scalability of Duck Creek Policy. Product changes can be easily implemented by business users with Duck Creek’s low-code tools, and with inheritance, configurators are able to reuse commonly found definitions across all products.

Improve Operational Efficiency

Duck Creek Policy, Rating, and Industry Content increase operational efficiencies by automating and streamlining manual processes and providing out-of-the box content. Reduce expense ratios and improve core operation performance by providing faster responses to inquiries, running significantly higher volume workflows, and increase speed to market with accelerated development of new and updated products.
