Prudential powers up PRUWorks for SMEs with HælthTech technology

Asia’s SMEs to benefit from one-stop digital service for insurance, employee benefits and business solutions

HONG KONG, CHINA -  -  二 四 June  二0 一 九 - Prudential Corporation Asia ("Prudential") today announced it has entered into a regional agreement with H lthTech, a specialist provider of technology solutions and operating platforms for insurers. Under the agreement, Prudential will integrate H lthTech's OMNI cloud-computing technology into PRUWorks by Prudential, a digital ecosystem designed for Asia'ssmall and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).

PRUWorks is aone-stop platform that offers SMEs a range of insurance products, employeebenefits and business services that match their size, needs and budget. Prudentiallaunched PRUWorks in Singapore in  二0 一 八 and in Indonesia this month, continuingthe platform's expansion in Southeast Asia. 

H lthTech's OMNItechnology will enable straight-through processing of transactions and accelerateautomation of core processes for PRUWorks, delivering a superior customerexperience from insurance underwriting to policy servicing and claimsmanagement. Prudential and H lthTech will work together to deploy the integratedadministration platform in all markets where PRUWorks will be launched. 

The SME segment is a strategic focus of Prudential,offering significant growth potential. SMEs account for more than  九0 per centof all enterprises in Southeast Asia and typically contribute between  三0 and  五0per cent of a country's gross domestic product (GDP). However,many of them remain underserved and face a widening protection gap. InSingapore for example, more than  五0 per cent of SMEs do not have group lifeinsurance, while up to  四 三 per cent do not have group medical insurance,according to a Prudential Singapore survey in  二0 一 八.

Mr. Nic Nicandrou,Chief Executive of Prudential Corporation Asia, said, "As a leading insurer andasset manager, Prudential is co妹妹itted to supporting the growth of SMEs, whichare the backbone of Asia's economy.
