Berkley Expands Use of Kalepa’s Platform

Kalepa, the leader in underwriting technology, today announced it signed an agreement with an affiliate of W. R. Berkley Corporation, an insurance holding company that is among the largest commercial lines writers in the United States and operates worldwide, expanding their efforts to implement a technology platform designed to enhance underwriting efficiency and accuracy across Berkley’s operating companies.

This agreement follows a successful initial deployment with Admiral Insurance Group, a Berkley Company, which had previously enlisted Kalepa’s platform to support its underwriting processes.
