CASE STUDY
Saxon Insurance’s Digital Leap: 25% Market Growth in a Year
Objectives

To replace aging, inefficient, and largely manual legacy systems

To increase market share in the Cayman Islands’ competitive insurance marketplace

To develop an innovative, policyholder-first business model
Results

Captured 25% of the Cayman Islands market within the first year

Reduced first response time to customer inquiries by 80%

Cut average transaction processing time by 50%

Improved customer satisfaction to 94%

We took an old insurance company that had very little market share and transformed what was a creaky, very manual, analog system and architecture into a very advanced digital platform within six months. Duck Creek was a key factor in this.

- Saxon transformed into a paperless, policyholder-first provider of smart insurance, significantly increasing its market share.
- Duck Creek Policy and Billing were implemented, offering a low-friction online engagement for policy shoppers and operational efficiencies for policy management.
