The Insurance industry finds yet another application for Blockchain technology. Business property insurance has lengthy data sharing processes and reconciliations. This involves a lot of time and effort. But a Blockchain reduces this time. In addition, the immutable and secure nature of blockchain prevents the risk of data loss and accountability issues. HCL Technologies (HCL), a leading global technology company, in collaboration with R3, a leading enterprise blockchain software firm, has launched BUILDINGBLOCK — a blockchain platform created to streamline business property insurance for multinational companies. This platform enables insurance companies to craft a master policy document by enabling real-time data flow in an easy, cryptographically secure and immutable manner.

It reduces the turnaround time and provides immutable records to establish accountability and proof of records. It takes away some burden of pointed BPM solutions and can prove to be a good asset for any organization in conducting pilots or taking it to production.
