When the topic of life insurance underwriting comes up in our podcast conversations, there is generally a lot of handwringing about the friction & complexity in the buying process. In this episode, I spoke with Ken McNair and Al Mele of SCOR's Velogica underwriting platform for life carriers. We discussed a bit of the history of life underwriting, when and why it got so cumbersome, and how Velogica is using available data to make this underlying easier.
