About Igloo
We’re a full-stack insurtech firm
- “What about the people who can’t afford insurance?”
- "Why do people find it hard to trust insurers?”
- “Can buying insurance be less painful?”
These were the questions that led to the start of Igloo (formerly Axinan), Southeast Asia’s leading full-stack insurtech firm. 500 million policies facilitated later, we’re still driven by the same mission: to make insurance accessible and affordable using data and tech. In other words, Insurance for All.
We’re a Singapore-headquartered full-stack insurtech firm. With a vision of making insurance accessible for all, we provide people-first insurance solutions that are simple, painless and honest. We leverage big data, real-time risk assessment, and end-to-end automated claims management to create insurance solutions for platforms and insurance companies, such as embedded insurance.
We currently have offices in seven countries across Southeast Asia, with expertise and capabilities spanning actuarial, commercial, product, marketing and operations.
