Etiqa won Excellence in HR Innovation Award amid digital transformation efforts in fintech industry

Singapore, 22 November 2018 – Known for its mission to humanise insurance, Etiqa Insurance Singapore has won the ‘Excellence in HR Innovation Award’ at the HR Excellence Awards 2018 amid its rapid progress against the growing adoption of FinTech in Singapore.

Also a finalist for ‘Excellence in Recruitment’ at the same event, the innovative digital insurer was awarded ‘Excellence in HR Innovation’ for initiating a Straight-Through-Process (STP) for onboarding and recruitment functions as well as Robotics Process Automation (RPA) to support high volume recurring processes.

“For an insurer that endeavours to place people over policies, it is important to form a dynamic team with the right people to resonate with our mission”, said Collin Sta Maria, Head of Human Capital of Etiqa Insurance Singapore. He continued, “With a vibrant onboarding process, we are able to build a strong foundation for intangible elements that help to build a positive work culture, allowing us to attract, engage and retain top talents.”

It is understood that technology-based solutions are essential elements that Etiqa values, and one of the key strategies of the company is to embrace digital transformation to better serve employees and stakeholders in this age of digital disruption.

In the recent Singapore FinTech Festival 2018, Group Chief Executive Officer of Etiqa Insurance & Takaful, Kamaludin Ahmad, shared his experience on building the human capital function within the Etiqa group and the importance of keeping abreast of key technological developments within the industry. This focus has translated to Etiqa Insurance & Takaful clinching a number of firsts in the industry, such as the first to launch online insurance savings plan in Singapore, and among the first to leverage on data analytics and robotics in insurance.

This year alone, Etiqa Insurance Singapore has also won several awards for its digital transformation efforts such as the ‘Most Innovative Finance Firm – Singapore 2018’ award in the World Finance Markets, and also emerged as the Bronze winner for Claims Management at the Efma-Accenture Innovation in Insurance Awards 2018.
