1 analytic model management FICO Central Solution for Insurance Complete model management and rapid deployment Consistent precision in insurers predictive models, and the ability to deploy new and retuned models without delay, is critical to ensuring maximum profit potential and gaining a competitive advantage. FICO has developed FICO Central Solution for Insurance to help insurers monitor the performance of every model across the enterprise, spot degradation and quickly develop and deploy models into operation. The solution gives insurers a scalable, three-tiered approach to centralizing model management and development, and exploring and refining decision strategies. Today, the world s leading insurers increasingly rely on predictive models for improving many types of decisions on prospects and policyholders. While modeling growth in insurance will certainly drive stronger decision management, it will also require a new perspective on model management. The FICO Central Solution for Insurance addresses a common challenge that has arisen with the insurance industry s proliferation of modeling: dispersion. As insurers develop and apply models to numerous decisions across the policyholder lifecycle, and across the enterprise, proper model management of every model is essential to profitability. s must be monitored for performance health, upgraded when degradation is detected, and sometimes even replaced. They must also be launched or relaunched into production without costly delays. Insurers today understand that analytic models are most predictive as close to development as possible speeding them into production is critical to gaining the competitive edge. Figure 1: FICO Central Solution Components ADVANCED DECISIONING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT Simulation and Testing Refresh Decision Optimization Validation and Deployment Development Data Mart FICO Central Solution for Insurance provides an integrated environment to improve model management, drive accurate outcomes and enhance business decisions. It s not a small problem, either. Insurers can have dozens or hundreds of models in use various marketing models, underwriting and pricing models, fraud detection models or attrition models. Consider the high financial stakes of undetected model degradation, or delayed deployment of new models: Prospecting to unacceptable risks and wasting marketing funds with weak campaign response; poor pricing decisions in underwriting that don t offset risk levels; payment of fraudulent claims; and the loss of desirable policyholders. Use of degrading models equals degrading profits. Without an automated, intelligent platform for managing models, as well as decision strategies, insurers run the costly risks of lost market share and missed opportunities, increased losses and a damaged reputation. That s why FICO has created a scalable path for insurers of all sizes to speed new models to market and more easily and quickly adopt an automated platform for managing their model environment. Tracking Alerts Monitoring Ongoing Validation Management Reporting FOUNDATION The high value of model and decision management FICO Central Solution for Insurance generates value across the insurance lifecycle: Marketing: Better prospecting segmentation, higher response and hit rates, maximized marketing spend. Underwrtiting: Building longerterm policyholder profitability and lower losses, improved exemption exam processes. Claims Fraud: Higher fraud identification, lower false-positives and more efficient case management. Policyholder Management: Reduced attrition of profitable policyholders and more predictable revenue. Make every decision count TM
2 FICO Central Solution for Insurance: A scalable, enterprise solution for rapid deployment and model management For more than 20 years, FICO has introduced successive innovations in insurance analytic technology and business solutions, helping carriers in every segment of the industry advance their decision-making capabilities.
