iPipeline, FIDx launch Insurance Exchange Express solution

iPipeline and Fiduciary Exchange announced a strategic expansion of their longstanding relationship with the launch of Insurance Exchange Express – a jointly developed solution designed to make digital annuity distribution more accessible to small and mid-market broker-dealers and financial institutions. An out-of-the-box offering, IX Express is a solution that extends digital distribution capabilities – once limited to larger, upper-market firms to a broader segment of the market. It delivers a streamlined, essential operating platform that enables more firms to easily adopt digital annuity capabilities and scale their business. Through the integration of FIDx’s Insurance Exchange and iPipeline’s AFFIRM(R)for Annuities solution, IX Express delivers a single unified annuity experience – eliminating operational friction, reducing new business processing errors, and eliminating disconnected workflows. IX Express enables firms with more limited resources to access integrated infrastructure that has traditionally required significant customization and investment. By introducing a standardized approach, it dramatically shortens implementation timelines-from the six to twelve months typical of traditional deployments to just weeks.
