Key Market Trends

Smart Contract is Expected to Hold a Significant Market Share

- Smart contracts powered by a blockchain could provide customers and insurers with the means to manage claims in a transparent, responsive and irrefutable manner where claims-handling could become more efficient and streamlined, resulting for improved customer experience.

- Contracts and claims could be recorded onto a blockchain and validated by the network, ensuring only valid claims are paid. Smart contracts would also enforce the claims for instance, triggering payments automatically only when certain conditions are met. For instances, smart contracts can be coded to accept feeds from the telematics devices, and in the event of an accident, automatically raise insurance claims & trigger pay-outs. They can also recommend trusted service stations in the vicinity and call for medical assistance should that be deemed necessary.

- Smart contracts possess capabilities to automate several processes that otherwise require manual intervention. In addition to this, the immutability of data increases reliability and helps make faster and correct decisions.
