Mission
Wakam's model leads us to outsource many key processes for an insurer: underwriting, production, claims & complaints management. We control our partners on these different aspects through 3 levers: continuous operational control, technical analysis and testing.
Wakam considers that controlling is a core activity, which goes far beyond the framework required by the regulator. We control all of our partners every year, focusing not only on standard activities, but also always keeping in mind the following questions: "Does the partner offer the best quality of service for our clients? What is the real risk for us ?
In order to answer these questions, Wakam carries out control on all its partners: Controls are structured around the verification of internal practices and processes relating to the distribution and management of insurance products, the identification and assessment of risks, and ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements.
The Partnerships Control team plays a major role toward its policyholders and Regulators in France and Europe, to ensure the quality and reliability of delegated insurance activities.
