Leading digital platform and distribution solutions provider IS2 today announces a new partnership with Simplified.ID, integrating its market leading identity verification and compliance services directly into IS2’s award winning Atlas digital distribution platform.
The API integration gives users seamless access to a comprehensive suite of Know Your Customer (KYC), Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Politically Exposed Person (PEP) and sanctions screening services, all from within a single platform. The result is a faster, more efficient and fully auditable compliance process that helps insurers, brokers and MGAs meet increasingly complex regulatory requirements without disrupting the customer journey.
As part of the partnership, IS2 clients will also benefit from preferential commercial terms, with bespoke discounted rates available for Simplified.ID's services.
With more than 17 years' experience in identity verification and regulatory compliance, Simplified.ID has built one of the industry's deepest and most trusted data ecosystems. Combined with IS2's 30-year heritage delivering specialist digital technology to the insurance market, the partnership brings together two insurtech businesses with a shared commitment to innovation, expertise and operational excellence.
The integration provides insurers and brokers with confidence that every identity check is supported by robust, high-quality data sources, helping them satisfy evolving regulatory obligations while reducing operational risk. A comprehensive audit trail also enables firms to demonstrate compliance quickly and easily should regulators require evidence.
Commenting on the partnership, Simon Pritchard, Managing Director at IS2, said: "Compliance has become an increasingly important part of the insurance journey, but it shouldn't become a barrier to doing business. By integrating Simplified.ID directly into Atlas, we've created a seamless experience that gives our clients access to best-in-class KYC and AML capabilities without leaving the platform."
Chris Clare, CEO at Simplified.ID, added: "Strong compliance starts with strong data. For more than 17 years we've invested in building comprehensive, reliable data sources and developing deep expertise in the ever changing regulatory landscape. That means insurers and brokers can have confidence they're making informed decisions based on robust, market leading intelligence. Partnering with IS2 allows us to embed those capabilities directly into one of the insurance market's leading digital distribution platforms. Together we're making compliance simpler, faster and more effective, while providing the transparency and auditability firms need to demonstrate they've met their regulatory obligations."
The integration further strengthens Atlas as a true end-to-end digital distribution platform, enabling insurers, MGAs and brokers to manage customer acquisition, underwriting, compliance and policy journeys through a single technology ecosystem.
