Insurance placement, at the speed your market demands
The Whitespace platform is the truly digital platform for the global (re)insurance marketplace.
Whitespace is a data-first digital placing platform designed to allow speciality insurers and brokers to work more efficiently by replacing fragmented processes, disconnected documents and manual effort with structured data and connected workflows.
Built specifically for the speciality insurance market, Whitespace creates a single source of truth for placing risk, enabling teams to manage more business, make better-informed decisions and support future automation and integration.
Every contract created and managed in Whitespace is built on structured data, making information easier to share, validate and reuse throughout the placement lifecycle, allowing organisations to:
- Increase throughput without increasing headcount.
- Reduce time spent on low-probability opportunities.
- Surface appetite earlier and focus effort on the right risks.
- Create the data foundation needed to support automation at scale.
Placement is under pressure
The global speciality insurance market is experiencing sustained growth in submission volumes, placing increased pressure on triage, appetite checking, and follow capacity deployment.
The firms best positioned for the future of speciality insurance are those that replace fragmented processes with structured data, connected workflows and consistent operating models. Whitespace enables that transition.
Built for modern insurance trading
Whitespace connects structured data, workflows and APIs to support the full trading lifecycle, from digital contract creation to submission through to appetite assessment and placement.
Rather than adding new tools or processes, Whitespace gives brokers and underwriters a shared global environment where:
- Structured data replaces documents as the source of truth.
- Workflows connect brokers and underwriters end to end.
- Data remains consistent throughout contract creation and placement.
- Rules can be configured to support repeatable decisions and enable automation.
From submission to bind, faster
By structuring contracts and placement as data, Whitespace removes the need for rekeying, eliminates version confusion, and enables faster, more reliable decisions from submission to bind.
This creates better visibility and more reliable workflows, while providing the foundation for automation, validation and integration at the point where contracts are created, negotiated and placed.
Digital placement for brokers, underwriters and operational teams
