The Ardonagh Group has launched Ardonagh Intelligence to harness the best of robotics, machine learning, and data enrichment.

Ardonagh Intelligence will create a single view of the data and technological capabilities across the group. It also now employs more than 100 data scientists and programmers including at the Ardonagh Analytics Lab in Mullingar, Ireland.

Group Chief Executive David Ross said: “Taking the placement power of one of the world’s leading insurance broking groups, we have built a sophisticated engine to manage our $18bn of GWP, which undoubtedly continues to be optimised by investment in the capability found in our Mullingar lab and other centres of expertise globally.

“The further you wade into the global data lake we have assembled over the past six years, the more boundless the opportunities become to deliver efficiencies for our portfolio of companies, and extraordinary benefit to the millions of clients they serve.”

Managing director Sami Sulaiman added: “Data-driven insights and AI-powered automation make the difference between a good business and an exceptional one. Ardonagh’s opportunity is unique, because it brings together so many businesses which invested early and already excel in this field. By bringing together our global capabilities we can extend the reach of that expertise and power it to go further and deeper.”

Ian Donaldson, Ardonagh Intelligence chair, commented: “It is hard to understate the transformational effect of digital insights across the businesses in Ardonagh’s portfolio. By bringing this work together under a unified strategy we can support local leaders with a roadmap incorporating the latest technologies that will have an immediate and tangible impact on everything from improving productivity to identifying risk insights and growth opportunities, while continuing to invest in the future.”

"Ardonagh launches global data and technology arm" was originally created and published by Life Insurance International, a GlobalData owned brand.
