Privacy, collaboration and regulation: The new landscape for insurance companies
The insurance companies sector is undergoing a profound digital transformation. The emergence of technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, the Internet of Things (IoT), and predictive analytics is completely reshaping how insurance policies are designed, marketed, and managed.
In this new landscape, data has become the most valuable asset for insurance companies: it enables more accurate risk assessment, personalized offers, fraud detection, and the development of more effective commercial strategies.
However, this opportunity also comes with significant challenges:
Regulatory compliance: the data handled by insurers—medical, financial, behavioral—is heavily protected by laws such as the GDPR, local Data Protection Acts, and specific regulations in the healthcare, insurance companies and financial sectors.
Fragmented information: many insurers operate across multiple regions or belong to groups with separate entities that are not allowed to freely share data.
The need to collaborate to improve AI models, without compromising data confidentiality.
In this context, our platform, offers an innovative solution: it allows AI models to be trained collaboratively without centralizing the data, which remains in its original location at all times.c
Four Key Use Cases in insurance companies
Insurers must extract value from customer data while ensuring strict privacy and regulatory compliance. Many of the most powerful advances in AI come from collaboration across organizations—a difficult task in an industry where competition and regulation limit data sharing.
Federated Learning makes it possible to train AI models across entities without moving the data, preserving data sovereignty and enabling secure collaboration. Our AI platform provides the technological infrastructure and privacy mechanisms needed to make this a reality.
Our platform is a leader in highly regulated industries such as healthcare, banking, and insurance. It offers:
Differential privacy and advanced cryptographic techniques like Secure Multiparty Computation.
Compliance with international data protection regulations.
Flexibility to operate in distributed environments (data centers, IoT devices, or independently managed organizations).
Additionally, our platform provides tools for managing, monitoring, and validating the federated training process, making it easy to integrate into real-world production environments.
1. More Accurate Premium Calculation
Accurately pricing a policy requires advanced predictive models that factor in a wide range of risk indicators. However, insurers often work with incomplete information, as they can’t centralize all available data due to privacy and regulatory constraints.
With our platform, different entities within an insurance group—or even public-private partnerships (e.g., with hospitals or vehicle registries)—can jointly train risk assessment models without exchanging sensitive data.
This leads to better pricing accuracy, improved customer segmentation, and the development of products tailored to the real risk profile of each policyholder.
2. Fraud Prevention Without Sharing Sensitive Information
Fraud results in billions of euros in losses across the insurance industry. Effectively detecting it requires analyzing large volumes of data and identifying patterns that often span multiple companies.
Our platform enables insurers to collaboratively train fraud detection models without sharing their datasets. Each organization trains locally on its own records, while the platform coordinates the overall learning process.
The result: a more robust model with higher detection accuracy, without compromising privacy or regulatory compliance.
3. Personalized Policies and Services with Distributed Data
Customers increasingly expect personalized products and services tailored to their needs. To deliver this, insurers must integrate data from diverse sources—driving habits, fitness activity, home usage, etc.
These data points, often generated by IoT devices or mobile apps, can’t always be transferred freely to the cloud due to privacy and resource constraints.
Our platform enables insurers to develop personalized models that are trained directly on users’ devices (edge computing) or in distributed infrastructure, without moving the data.
This allows for dynamic recommendations, tailored coverage, and preventive services—all built on a privacy-first architecture.
4. Cross-Selling Between Life and Non-Life Insurance Products Within the Same Group
Many insurance companies operate across both life and non-life business lines (e.g., health, auto, home), but data between these areas is often siloed due to regulatory, technical, or governance barriers.
Our AI platform allows these different departments, business units, or even separate companies within the same group to train joint recommendation models or identify cross-selling opportunities without sharing their databases.
For example, an insurance company may detect that a customer with an auto policy is a good candidate for a health policy, or vice versa—leveraging shared intelligence without violating internal data boundaries.
Federated Learning in Insurance Companies
Federated Learning is a unique opportunity for insurers to harness the full potential of their data without compromising privacy or legal compliance. From fraud detection to personalized policies, premium optimization, and internal cross-selling—this technology is ready to transform the insurance industry.
