GA technologies and Finatext Launch Embedded Property Insurance on Real Estate Marketplace “RENOSY”
1. Background
As technology advances and online business models become more prevalent, customers’ expectations and actual processes for purchasing products and services are changing dramatically. Under these circumstances, an embedded insurance product that incorporates insurance products into actual products and services offered online is attracting attention as a convenient way to purchase an insurance product.
Owners of investment properties are often required to purchase property insurance when securing a loan. Real estate agents have received increasingly more feedback from customers that they want to purchase property insurance in a more convenient way. To meet such needs, GA technologies, which streamlines and digitalizes real estate investment procedures, and Finatext, which provides Inspire, a service that allows for fully digitalized insurance and embedded insurance products, have jointly developed a system providing an Embedded Property Insurance product.
2. Product Features
The partnership between GA technologies and Finatext to create embedded insurance for the online real estate marketplace is the first of its kind in the real estate and insurance industries in Japan*3.
