SUMMARY:Modern underwriting infrastructure for the Australian market - intr
 oducing Cuttleflow
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Max Broodryk – Founder and Executive Director Aust
 ralia’s insurance trading infrastructure — the systems where risk is p
 riced\, bound and reported — is concentrated in ageing platforms at a mo
 ment when both incumbents face ownership upheaval. This session examines w
 hat a modern system for an underwriting agency looks like and what it chan
 ges in practice: a broker’s submission read from the form rather than re
 -typed\; straight-through quoting on deterministic rules\, so the same ris
 k gets the same answer every time\; automated referrals\; built-in sanctio
 ns screening\, tax and billing\; and a decision record that cannot be alte
 red after the fact. It also shows how those same records produce the insur
 er’s monthly bordereau\, and what that means for the diligence questions
  capacity providers put to an agency. It then looks at how an agency bring
 s a new product to market in weeks rather than months\, and how digital in
 take — broker email\, web forms and connections from third-party systems
  — feeds the underwriting system without rekeying. The session closes wi
 th a live walkthrough of Cuttleflow’s underwriting platform and how UAC 
 members — agencies\, brokers and business service providers — can conn
 ect. 45–50 minutes plus Q&A. By the end of this session\, participants w
 ill be able to: Describe the current structure of Australia’s insurance 
 trading infrastructure and why it is changing now. Explain how determinist
 ic rules engines\, automated referrals\, sanctions screening and audit led
 gers change underwriting agency operations and compliance obligations. Exp
 lain how a single record running from submission to bordereau changes the 
 evidence an agency can give its capacity providers and regulators. Assess 
 the practical steps\, benefits and considerations for an agency\, broker o
 r business service member adopting modern underwriting infrastructure. Reg
