Marsh offers cloud-based platform for affinity market

Marsh LLC on Thursday said it has launched Bluestream, a cloud-based digital broker platform for the affinity market.

Bluestream will provide Marsh’s affinity clients a streamlined way to offer insurance products and services to their customers, contractors and employees, the broker said in a statement.

The service will provide a configurable and secure platform where clients can choose a single insurance or multiple insurance providers to quote, bind and issue policies with one or more companies, as well as an analytics dashboard, the statement said

Marsh is accepting beta clients for Bluestream and expects to scale the platform to its broader client base in 2019, the statement said.

“While the platform can serve our clients in all industries, it’s particularly relevant for global clients in digitally advanced sectors as well as digital native organizations like sharing economy companies,” John Drzik, Marsh’s president of global risk and digital, said in the statement.
