Artificial intelligence use cases are being deployed across the value-chain with dedicated management
focus on measurable outcomes. Claims operations, for example, have been strengthened by an AI-ML
analytics layer designed to enhanced precision and efficiency. The Company is now in the process of
layering Generative AI capabilities to further improve outcomes. In-house capabilities on AI have been
strengthened through global technology partnerships.
