Fully automated real-time transactions
Reduced costs and workflow processes
Market-leading competitiveness in 2 months
In order to stay competitive in the market, Allianz Taiwan Life introduced a corporate digitalisation strategy in 2018 – so it could improve its customer experience by providing instant claims payout services. Allianz faced challenges when working with its incumbent bank, and no other banks at that time were capable of meeting its requirement for digital solutions and their project deadline.
Allianz then turned to DBS to support its plan for instant payouts. DBS developed a digital solution, integrated with Allianz Taiwan Life’s ERP system, based on the API capabilities available through DBS RAPID (Real-time APIs with DBS). An e-ACH API is layered onto DBS RAPID, which enables Allianz to execute instant payouts for customers’ claims. The solution also enables Allianz to provide real-time end-to-end transactional capabilities with straight-through processing (STP).
The solution from DBS enabled Allianz to make instant payouts for claims by its customers. Powered by DBS RAPID, the claim payment process is 22% faster than before, which in turn translates to better customer experience. Internally, Allianz was also able to automate the transactions process, improve workflow efficiency, speed up operations and reduce costs for Taiwan dollar remittances.
By embracing a fully automated solution, Allianz positioned the company well for exploring the next level of payment transformation.
