We recently announced a notable milestone in our journey - the acquisition of Morning Data, a leading provider of software solutions to brokers and managing general agents (MGAs) worldwide.

This acquisition is more than an expansion of our services; it represents the integration of a team that aligns with our vision for the digital transformation of the international broker and MGA market.

Since its inception in 1985, Morning Data has been a pioneer in delivering innovative software and service solutions for the global insurance industry. The company's data-first approach and comprehensive ecosystem of services has been key in supporting its diverse clientele.

Last month, we held a presentation for Morning Data clients, during which key executives including Kirstin Duffield, CEO of Morning Data, and Tim Rayner, CEO of Verisk Specialty Business Solutions, expressed their optimism about this partnership.

They highlighted the synergies between the two companies and the potential to deliver enhanced services and solutions to their clients.

Strengthening Verisk's Specialty Business Solutions Suite

Morning Data will be integrated into Verisk's Specialty Business Solutions, a robust suite of comprehensive management solutions. Richard Reggel, Chief Commercial Officer EMEA of Verisk Specialty Business Solutions, discussed the value of this integration.

He explained how Morning Data's capabilities would serve to enhance the existing suite of products and solutions, which includes Sequel Broking and the Whitespace digital trading platform.

Integration with Whitespace

A key benefit of this acquisition is the integration of Morning Data's NOVUS platform with Whitespace, Verisk's digital trading platform. This integration will enable a more efficient workflow for clients, improving the overall user experience.

Craig Kingaby, CEO of Meridian Risk Solutions provided great insight at the event, as a valued client of both Morning Data and Whitespace.

A Warm Welcome and a Bright Future

We are excited to welcome the Morning Data team to the Verisk family. Their expertise and innovative solutions are instrumental to the next phase of our growth and evolution.

The Verisk-Morning Data alliance is a significant step forward and underscores Verisk's commitment to providing its clients with innovative, data-driven solutions that drive operational efficiency and informed decision-making.

As we move forward, we look forward to continuing to lead the way in leveraging data analytics and technology to meet the evolving needs of the global insurance industry. Welcome aboard, Morning Data!
