A prominent NBFC from North India, focused on secured and MSME lending, was scaling its loan book rapidly. However, insurance—while mandatory and valuable—was introducing friction into disbursement timelines and operational workflows.
The Challenge
Time-sensitive lending meets regulated insurance
- Loan disbursement timelines impacted by manual insurance issuance
- Credit life premiums not aligned to loan tenure, increasing borrower cost
- High dependency on medical and NML cases
- Inability to offer multiple insurance products in real time
- Limited visibility into policy status, premiums, and reconciliation
