Digit Insurance chairman Kamesh Goyal said, “The one thing that has got us this far, this quick is our strong foundation, our mission of simplifying insurance for people on the back on simple documents, simple processes and reimagined products with real benefits.

“As we strive to achieve bigger milestones, our focus in the coming year would be to further simplify claims, using technology as an enabler, for example with processes like Video Calls during Claims and to launch more products that would challenge the standard products available in the market currently.”
