Generali partners with Blink in Asia
Blink Innovation, a subsidiary of product marketing business CPP Group, has partnered with Generali Hong Kong.
The partnership will see Generali’s strategic reinsurance solution team expand its offerings to include travel disruption insurance solutions for its reinsurance customers. Blink says that the convenience and cost-effectiveness of air travel in Asia, at both an international and local level, means that there is a large opportunity for the reinsurance business due to the increased chance of travel disruption. Blink will offer its real-time resolution platform and automation features to customers in the region.
Blink CEO Paul Prendergast was pleased to announce the partnership: “Our Travel Insurance Innovation platform, coupled with Generali's market insights and pan-Asian reach, will allow us to continue building and delivering great customer experiences and giving them peace of mind when travelling.”
The platform delivered by Blink tracks flight delays or cancellations, and ‘automatically resolv[es] inconveniences through partnerships with insurance companies’.
“We are excited to partner with Blink to bring innovation to our reinsurance partners across Asia,” said Cillin O’Flynn, CEO of Generali Hong Kong Life Limited. “Technology is key to providing an improved customer experience and we believe Blink's platform is best in class for delivering true innovation in reinsurance.”
