Description of the company: Amlin is a leading underwriter of specialist insurance and reinsurance and operates in both the Lloyd’s of London and Bermuda markets.  

The situation: Before investing in MicroStrategy, Amlin set a challenging set of BI systems requirements. The objectives were to provide BI availability
to all divisions and job functions across the organisation worldwide; provide access to real-time data for decision makers via reports tailored to their needs; and to consolidate group systems around standard business processes.

The solution: MicroStrategy technology assists Amlin to manage both its capital and its contract certainty / completion more efficiently and effectively. Key
to success has been the integration and alignment of IT and business strategy. Reports and data are now both more relevant and timely, as reports are tailored to individual divisions down to job function level.

The benefits: MicroStrategy BI has facilitated cultural and organisational change for Amlin as part of a wider business transformation process. External data mapped to Amlin’s internal data has provided a higher level of
understanding of business risk. More granular data and analysis has allowed Amlin to price its insurance and reinsurance policies more competitively and to write better policy terms that more accurately reflect business risk.
