First Chicago Insurance Company Enhances Commercial Auto Underwriting with New Verisk Solution

Jersey City, N.J., June 15, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- First Chicago Insurance Company (FCIC), a proud member of the Warrior Insurance Network (WIN), is refining its commercial auto underwriting with robust vehicle data from Verisk (Nasdaq: VRSK), a leading global data analytics and technology provider.

The insurer is leveraging Verisk’s new commercial lines (CL) VIN Decode solution to gain a more robust understanding of risk unique to commercial and specialized vehicles. With an individual Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), the solution delivers information on more than 50 detailed vehicle attributes, such as year, make, model, weight, engine, and transmission, seamlessly into First Chicago’s underwriting workflow.

“Commercial vehicles come in many different shapes and sizes, and their unique attributes can have a significant impact on their risk profiles,” Mark Bissonette, Vice President, Commercial Lines Underwriting, FCIC. “Verisk’s detailed data and automation capabilities are enabling us to evaluate and price with greater precision and deliver a more streamlined customer experience.”

Verisk’s CL VIN Decode information is continually updated with new data on a range of commercial vehicles, including traditional private passenger types, light duty to extra-heavy-duty trucks, trailers, and specialty vehicles. This information can be used in conjunction with ISO’s Commercial Auto Classification Plan. Verisk surfaces critical components to help rate policies more precisely including vehicle age, gross vehicle weight, and vehicle value.

“Achieving profitability in the commercial auto market has been a challenge for many insurers in the past decade, and we’re committed to creating solutions that help clients overcome those challenges,” said Joe Wodark, vice president of auto underwriting solutions at Verisk. “By plugging into our new CL VIN Decode solution, First Chicago will be able to get the latest data on the rapidly evolving world of commercial vehicles, and gain insights that can have a significant impact on their book of business.”
