AXA XL extends access to ‘Ecosystem’ suite for North American clients

AXA XL has extended access to the AXA XL Ecosystem for North American clients across the property & casualty and specialty insurance lines.

In a news release announcing the extended offering, Donna Nadeau, AXA XL’s chief underwriting officer for the Americas, said the move is intended to help more businesses “enhance their safety protocols, protect their people and properties, minimize liability, and improve their overall performance.”

“We’re excited to extend access further with new technologies and innovative solutions that can help our clients address business risks across their operations,” Nadeau added.

The AXA XL Ecosystem is a suite of business solutions that leverages strategic partnerships and services to advance risk management and support sustainable business growth. It was initially developed to support AXA XL’s construction clients and has since evolved to address risks across other industries.

Rose Hall, head of innovation for AXA XL in the Americas, said the program aims to support businesses as they navigate “today’s operating environment, where the cost of everything, including risk, is more expensive.”

“Through the Ecosystem, we’re empowering our clients to actively manage risk across their operations,” Hall said. “With so many new technologies and services to choose from, we’re taking on a lot of the legwork for our clients by pre-qualifying our Preferred Partners and negotiating preferential pricing.”

AXA XL has been developing its Ecosystem solutions through partnerships with various firms specializing in workplace safety, property loss prevention, telematics, underground utility mapping, bullet-proof walls, and disaster response services.

The latest additions to the preferred partners list include the following:

• Driver Technologies: App-based telematics solution that utilizes the driver’s cellphone to provide driver and front-facing cameras, along with drive analytics
• Gabriel: Security software solution that detects, automates, and supports responses to violent threats
• KT Security Solutions: Collapsible bullet-proof walls to enhance protection during active shooter situations
• LAIIER: Self-adhesive smart water leak sensors designed to fit into tiny spaces
