They can discuss, clarify, negotiate and finalize a number of placements at the same time.<\/p>\n<p>For example, a broker with 10 active placements can have 10 messaging windows open on the same screen organized thematically so that broker, the insured and the underwriters can interact live and in real time, where everything is logged and tracked in one place, explained Bourgeois in an emailed statement.<\/p>\n<p>Bourgeois said a modern commercial re\/insurance communications platform has \u201cthe potential to revolutionize how the market meets, negotiates and transacts.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPrecious hours and days are lost trying to keep track of and answer disparate unsecure emails and texts as commercial insurance transactions move through negotiation to close,\u201d Bourgeois stated.<\/p>\n<p>He said fuse is Inspired by technologies commonly used in the capital markets that connect buyers, brokers and sellers. In the capital markets, advanced inter-company communication services exist to connect the market to accelerate trade and improve compliance. Fuse is bringing the same modern messaging tech to commercial re\/insurance.<\/p>\n<div class=\"bzn bzn-sized bzn-intext-2\">\n<ins data-revive-zoneid=\"162\" data-revive-topics=\"insurtech,reinsurance,tech\" data-revive-companies data-revive-block=\"1\" data-revive-id=\"36eb7c2bd3daa932a43cc2a8ffbed3a9\"><\/ins> <\/div>\n<p>Fuse is available as a desktop web application and is also fully smart-phone compliant.<\/p>\n<p>The fuse application is available in public beta.
