The Council of Australian Life Insurers says financial services digital solutions provider Equisoft has become the first group to join its Partner Program.

Under the program, senior insurance leaders and financial services experts will work to find solutions for challenges facing the life industry.

“This is about creating deep professional connections and working together to support our industry and find the most innovative solutions to business challenges,” council CEO Christine Cupitt said.

“Equisoft’s deep domain expertise in the financial services industry will help our members continue to expand Australians’ access to the life insurance protection that suits them when they need it most.”

Equisoft VP Insurance and Wealth Management Asia-Pacific Naintara Sahay said: “Through this partnership, we can participate in forums to address business problems and provide solutions to support the life insurance industry’s strong future.”
