Creditor Insurance provides an individual with insurance cover against inability to make repayments under a credit agreement because of his/her death, disability or unemployment. Aviva was launched as the brand entity in July 2002.

Project #4
Project Name : Creditor Simplify – MI Finance
Environment : COBOL, JCL, DB2
Skill/Tools : Alchemist, File-Aid
Description : The Scope of this project is Automation of Claims, Earnings and Reinsurance Data.
The Scope of this Module is to automate the Reinsurance Premium data and Creation of data files for reinsurance data validation. To achieve the automated feed for LENCI reinsurance data a new data repository is introduced. This data repository takes the input from the LENCI premium strategic feed and creates record in the format required to update the reinsurance data mart. To calculate the reinsurance data from the premium SIFAD, reinsurance percentage will be used from the LENCI scheme file. This file will provide the reinsurance percentage to calculate the reinsurance written premium and reinsurance commission amount from the LENCI strategic feed along with other required fields for data mart. The data from the new reinsurance repository will be merged with spearmint data and manual feed data (except lenci creditor data) and then updated to the reinsurance mart.
