Insurance company underwriting involves assessing risk and determining appropriate premiums, making signed agreements essential for moving forward with policies. Key documents in this process include insurance applications, policy declarations, endorsements, and risk assessment forms.
However, traditional methods of managing these agreements—such as printing, signing, and manually tracking documents—are often inefficient. They can result in slow processing times, increased chances of errors, and challenges with document security and compliance. The reliance on physical paperwork also adds unnecessary delays and costs.
BoldSign addresses these challenges by streamlining the entire signing process. With digital signatures, underwriting agreements can be completed faster, errors minimized, and security enhanced through encryption. By eliminating the need for physical documents, BoldSign reduces administrative costs and ensures compliance is maintained with minimal effort.
In this blog, we’ll explore how BoldSign’s features simplify the underwriting process, making it more efficient and secure.
The Impact of BoldSign Features on Underwriting Processes
BoldSign offers features that effectively address your signing needs. Here’s how each feature simplifies the underwriting process.
Support for multiple signers
The multisigner feature is key in underwriting because it lets multiple people, such as applicants, underwriters, and third-party reviewers, sign documents at once. This speeds up the process, ensures all approvals are collected, and reduces the chance of missing signatures. It helps keep everything accurate and on time.
Create customizable templates
Creating templates for frequently signed documents, such as application forms, disclosure statements, and approval agreements, standardizes document creation, reduces errors, and saves time. Templates allow underwriters to accelerate workflows while also maintaining regulatory compliance.
Advanced signer authentication
In underwriting, confirming the identity of signers is important to prevent fraud and unauthorized access, ensuring the process is secure and meets legal requirements. BoldSign supports this by offering secure authentication methods: identity verification, access codes, email OTP, and SMS OTP. These features ensure that all signatures are legitimate and that the process remains compliant with regulatory standards, helping to manage risk and protect everyone involved.
Customize your brand
Building trust with clients is vital in underwriting, and strong branding plays a key role. A consistent brand image conveys reliability and professionalism, which is essential for handling sensitive financial and insurance matters. BoldSign supports this by allowing you to customize the appearance of your emails and the signer page with your brand’s logo and colors, ensuring that all communications and documents reflect your organization’s identity. This enhances the overall customer experience and makes the process smoother by reinforcing your brand’s professionalism and consistency.
Mobile accessibility
Mobile access makes it easy to manage, review, and sign documents from anywhere on a smartphone or tablet. BoldSign provides this with a user-friendly platform that allows quick, on-the-go signing, reducing delays and speeding up agreement completion.
No signer account required
BoldSign makes it easy for signers to access documents via a link sent by email or SMS. They don’t need to create an account, allowing for quicker reviews and signatures with fewer delays. This is especially useful in urgent underwriting decisions, helping finalize contracts and policy changes faster.
Real-time document tracking
Tracking document progress provides immediate insights into the status of approvals. BoldSign supports this by offering instant updates and visibility, allowing users to identify delays, maintain timelines, and ensure accuracy.
