PALMERSTON NORTH New Zealand and FOSTER CITY Calif., June 3, 2015

FMG, New Zealand’s leading rural insurer, and Guidewire Software, Inc. (NYSE: GWRE), a provider of software products to Property/Casualty insurers, today announced that FMG has selected Guidewire ClaimCenter® as its new claims management system. FMG also selected Guidewire Claim Portal for Vendors™. With this selection, FMG is now a full Guidewire InsuranceSuite™ customer, having deployed BillingCenter and PolicyCenter in 2013 through all lines of its business.

ClaimCenter will replace FMG’s in-house claims management system, giving it new capabilities to help it more efficiently and effectively deliver on the service commitments to its clients while improving employee satisfaction.

“We selected ClaimCenter for a number of reasons,” said Geoff Yeats, General Manager of Business Information Services, FMG. “Following on from our positive experiences with PolicyCenter and BillingCenter, the adoption of ClaimCenter will help us to continue to enhance our client’s service experience and employee satisfaction. Smart tools for smart people.”

The new Guidewire products will enable FMG to:

  • Leverage industry claims management best practices;

  • Implement a modern platform to improve the overall claims experience for policyholders; and

  • Obtain better visibility into claims handling operations.

“We enjoy our relationship with FMG and look forward to our continued work together as FMG transforms its claims operations,” said Ian Tavener, vice president, Asia Pacific Operations, Guidewire Software. “We admire FMG’s commitment to providing exceptional service to clients through an improved employee experience supported by Guidewire.”

ClaimCenter is in use by insurers of all sizes across all product lines to improve speed and accuracy, reduce loss adjustment expense, and enable proactive management of claims.
