Product oversight and governance solution

Product governance is a demanding topic that involves a lot of players and requirements. Despite its complexity, lots of organisations still organise their product oversight over several spreadsheets and platforms. This usually makes keeping track of changes a challenge itself, and ensuring effective product governance an even bigger task.

 

This where Oversight360 comes in.

 

Oversight360 is an all-in -one product lifecycle management and product governance solution tailored to meet the regulatory requirements of the UK insurance market, to help companies record, track, and report on product governance and face the challenge. It facilitates compliant product oversight requirements through a 360-view of the product on a single platform, allowing insurers and brokers to have a comprehensive view and control of their product lifecycle from design to distribution, and facilitating information sharing across the distribution chain. Oversigth360 helps firms capture all relevant information for their fair value assessments, allowing them to act on information and creating certainty that they have the FCA’s fair value requirements.

 

Sicsic Advisory has partnered with Skyjed, the world’s first AI-powered end-to-end modern product lifecycle management and governance SaaS tool and brings this new perspective to the UK insurance market.
