Overview
FAST (Flexible Architecture, Simplified Technology) is a leading software platform for the life insurance and annuity industry, now part of Verisk Analytics. Founded in 2010, FAST provides core software that allows life insurers to efficiently enhance or replace their legacy policy administration, new business, and distribution management systems.
The platform has been recognized as the industry-leading policy administration system by ISG for four consecutive years. FAST enables carriers to reduce product time-to-market by 75% and launch new offerings in as little as 2 months through preconfigured components and platform configurability.
FAST was acquired by Verisk Analytics in December 2019 for $193.5 million, strengthening Verisk's data and analytics solutions in the life insurance market.
