Two Sigma Insurance Quantified, an underwriting technology company for the commercial property/casualty industry, announced a partnership with NominoData, a company helping clients with worldwide identity, compliance, and risk management.

Through this partnership, NominoData’s OFACplus dataset will now be available to customers of TSIQ’s underwriting workbench service, SubmissionIQ. By incorporating this data directly into their workflows, firms will be able to work on detecting fraud and strengthening risk management earlier in the underwriting process, according to a company press release.

The OFACplus dataset aggregates high-risk watch lists into a single data file to help manage risk and sanctions. Through an API integration with SubmissionIQ, underwriting teams can call the data to verify an individual or company identity, flagging any high-risk information. Use cases in TSIQ’s currently active industries include fraud detection in commercial transportation for firms to better verify company and driver identity and professional liability programs to validate businesses and individuals within a practice.

Incorporation of NominoData’s OFACplus dataset directly within SubmissionIQ represents the latest partnership for TSIQ. In October, the company announced its partnership with Central Analysis Bureau, a provider of risk assessment tools and data for the transportation insurance industry.
