HDI Global Specialty launches new digital platform for general aviation insurance

HDI Global Specialty SE, the specialty lines insurer, has launched a new insurance platform which delivers general aviation policies to brokers in minutes.

The new platform, called ‘Aviation IQ’, has been developed in partnership with Precision Autonomy and delivers end-to-end digital automation of general aviation insurance policies.

Initially, the platform is only available in Australia but is expected to be rolled out internationally, across all of HDI Global Specialty’s aviation teams.

The announcement extends the partnership that HDI Global Specialty SE already has with Precision Autonomy, which began in January this year providing a commercial drone insurance offering to the Australian market.

Jamie Bowes, Head of Aviation at HDI Global Specialty SE Australia said: “Aviation IQ is a bespoke full insurance life cycle platform for general aviation policies. The aviation market has lacked disruption and innovation, this seeks to considerably change that. We are now able to provide a much faster response to brokers, more flexibility in terms of product offering, pricing and usability, and thus streamlining the traditional method of placement and management of aviation insurance policies.”

“Since the start of our partnership with Precision Autonomy we have been impressed with the customisation capabilities of the platform which will provide aviation brokers with a genuinely enhanced level of service and experience.” 

Mark Halverson, Precision Autonomy’s CEO and co-founder added: “We are delighted to be extending our relationship with the Australian team at HDI Global Specialty. The partnership is already delivering a much enhanced experience for their brokers, I’m looking forward to demonstrating our ability to take this to the next level.”
