12 Blockchain & insurance Six ways Blockchain could disrupt insurance Event-triggered smart contracts Increased back-end efficiency Disintermediation Better pricing and risk assessment New types of insurance Reaching the underserved Automated claims Self-executing contracts Reduced fraud, improved customer experience Decentralized, fully digital, safer markets Less human error, no data duplication Less processing delays, transaction costs Decentralized carrier consortium Automatic identity validation Self-executed transactions No need of trusted partners Real-time, individualized Automatic data sharing for analytics and pricing Risk transparency through connected economy P2P, shared economy, spot-insurance, hybrids More transparency, less costs Social media and crowdsourced oracles Solves many microinsurance challenges Automatic construction of distributed database Better prices through simplicity and efficiency 12
13 Blockchain & insurance Six ways Blockchain could disrupt insurance Event-triggered smart contracts Automated claims Self-executing contracts Reduced fraud, improved customer experience Smart contracts cannot fetch external data on their own Oraclize as connection between Web APIs and Dapps Trustworthiness through cryptographic proof 13
14 Blockchain & insurance Six ways Blockchain could disrupt insurance Event-triggered smart contracts Automated claims Self-executing contracts Reduced fraud, improved customer experience A powerful trio for insurance: IoT, Big Data and SmartContracts Already applicable to any type of parametric insurance IoT oracles: e.g. appliances and product insurance, UBI, smart homes and fire insurance Crowdsourced oracles Social media oracles 14
15 Blockchain & insurance Six ways Blockchain could disrupt insurance Increased back-end efficiency Decentralized, fully digital, safer markets Less human error, no data duplication Less processing delays, transaction costs By replacing the human interventions which are currently embedded throughout the entire risk transfer process, frictional delays and the risks of human error are completely removed with a radical effect on the speed and efficiency of the process and, in the case of bonds, on the tradability of such securities. Richard Boyd, ART Chief Underwriting Officer First transacted blockchain enabled natural catastrophe swap Applicable to cat bonds Acceleration of transactional processing and settlement, less manual processing and authentication Increased reliability, auditability and tradability of cat bonds and swaps Looking into blockchain enabled payment processes in international fronting for captive insurers

18 Blockchain & insurance Six ways Blockchain could disrupt insurance New types of insurance P2P, shared economy, spot-insurance, hybrids More transparency, less costs Social media and crowdsourced oracles Blockchain will not reinvent the way insurance is done, but will enable the transparency and scalability of new types of insurance and provide a framework for self-regulating organizations among non-trusted partners 18

23 Blockchain?? What is Blockchain? going into more detail A blockchain is a digital file that is built in blocks Each block of the chain can be seen as the pages in a book But blocks are chained through cryptographic fingerprints So, each block references the previous block with a fingerprint that is uniquely generated through that block s content Hacking any data in a block implies regenerating all fingerprints after the hacked block, which cannot be done in a way that doesn t modify the blockchain Source: Digital Currency Labs 20 23
24 Blockchain?? What is Blockchain? going into more detail Structure of a transaction in Blockchain: 1. A transaction transferring value between 2 (or more) network users is requested 2. Network checks that transaction can be executed (e.g. provenance of transacted assets is registered in the blockchain) using preestablished algorithms 3. Consensus is reached among validator nodes to authorize transaction 4. Transaction is executed 5. Transaction gets cryptographically recorded (who, what, when, for how much, new asset ownership) Source: Digital Currency Labs 20 24
25 Blockchain?? What is Blockchain? Consensus Blockchain gets maintained through economic incentives (usually) paid out in a cryptocurrency Network nodes acting as miners validate transactions, add them to their own copy of the ledger and then send the added ledger block to rest of nodes In the bitcoin blockchain, a new block is created, added and published to the rest of the network, around every 10 minutes Originally, the blockchain mechanism was developed to have an immutable audit trail on bitcoin transactions and to prevent double-spending of bitcoin in a system without any central oversight Hashgraph consensus and the Gossip protocol Consensus can be generated in various ways 25
