“We have brought to market an innovative solution that enables insurers to target their life insurance products at specific profiles,” said Peter Ohnemus, dacadoo’s president & CEO. “Through our new partnership with FICO, insurers will be able to use more dynamic data to assess the risk of each applicant, and to design highly personalized insurance products for their customers using advanced decision science. They can use the FICO capabilities to enhance their risk modelling and create more complex decision trees. We are giving insurers a whole new level of risk assessment precision to help them build their portfolio.”
