“Sasria has a broad mandate to provide solutions to those who cannot access insurance, and this can’t be achieved by an organization adverse to technological advancements,” said Sam Nkosi, Chief Information Officer, Sasria. “Two of our strategic goals are digitalisation and customer-centricity. Guidewire is the driving force in shaping the adoption of digitalisation in the P&C insurance sector, and this is key to our selection, as well as the close alignment of our corporate cultures.
