Aioi Nissay Dowa Insurance Company Australia Pty Ltd (ADICA), a general insurance company in Australia, faced a significant challenge when it began underwriting operations as a locally incorporated subsidiary. The existing branch operations were scaled down and placed into runoff, prompting ADICA to seek a business process management tool. The company needed a solution that would enhance its risk management environment, integrate risk and compliance requirements directly into processes, and assist in meeting its obligations under various regulatory and prudential regimes. As a general insurance company, ADICA is authorized to carry on general insurance business within Australia and is supervised by the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA), which oversees Australia’s authorized deposit-taking institutions, life and general insurance companies, and superannuation funds. Therefore, it was crucial for ADICA to have a robust risk management and compliance system in place.
