The Farm Bureau® Insurance Companies in Arkansas, Colorado, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi and South Carolina Unveil Coronavirus Customer Assistance Program

Policyholders receive $30 million one-time credit, community food banks receive $2.3 million donation.

The Farm Bureau Insurance companies, leading providers of property and casualty insurance in Arkansas, Colorado, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi, and South Carolina, are offering a variety of financial assistance measures in response to unexpected hardships for their customers and the communities they serve due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak—including a one-time estimated premium credit of $30 million to policyholders, and donation of $2.3 million to local food banks across their six state footprint.

“Everything we do is built around helping people. Insurance is a safety net designed to provide people comfort and peace of mind in the face of adversity—and now more than ever, people need to feel that peace,” said Steve Murray, President & CEO, Florida Farm Bureau Insurance Companies. “These are some of the ways the Farm Bureau Insurance companies can give back to the communities we serve, and we are happy to fulfill that obligation of service.”

One-Time Premium Credit*

The Farm Bureau Insurance companies are distributing a one-time credit to all personal auto policyholders. This special credit is based on 15 percent of two months auto premium paid for each vehicle covered—an estimated value of about $30 million. No action needs to be taken by the customer to receive this special assistance. The Farm Bureau Insurance companies will simply credit their customers’ next invoice after the program begins.

Feeding Families

Farm Bureau’s founding mission is to feed and support the families that put food on our tables. In an effort to hold true to the core values of their organizations by providing relief to their communities in a time of need, the Farm Bureau Insurance companies have jointly decided to donate $2.3 million to local food banks across their six-state footprint.

Additional Payment Accommodations

In addition, as of April 8, fees charged for insufficient funds whether returned checks or electronic funds transfers, will be waived for all insureds, and any premium adjustments made based on the number of insufficient funds will be waived until September 1, 2020.

Other options being offered to insureds on a case-by-case basis include:

  • Extending due dates to allow their customer to make a partial payment

  • Adjusting an individual’s payment schedule based on their current budget so that the insured can keep coverage in force

  • Adjusting the billing dates to allow for flexibility in making payments

Customers are allowed to make payments of multiple payment types (cash, check, credit card) and that will continue to be available. EFT also continues to be available for eligible accounts.

COVID-19 Leads to Greater Employer Focus on Response Planning, Employee Education and Flexible Work Arrangements, Alera Group Study Reveals

Leave a comment


News Image

Despite the severity of the situation, employers are promoting resilience through EAP and wellness resources, and where onboarding can continue, turning to virtual methods.


DEERFIELD, Ill. (PRWEB)

COVID-19 is leading many employers to implement or re-evaluate their infectious disease response plans, ramp-up their employee communication efforts, and offer flexible work arrangements to address childcare and remote work challenges, a new Alera Group study finds.

The Alera Group COVID-19 Employer Pulse Survey explores the impact of the pandemic and offers insights into how employers throughout the country and in various industries are navigating employee health, benefits and human resources issues in the changing landscape.

The study identified five key findings:

  • Over 50% of employers surveyed with 100 or more employees will implement formal infectious disease policies as a result of COVID-19.

  • Most employers, regardless of size, region, or industry, are educating their employees several times a week about prevention techniques, COVID-19 symptoms and employee benefits.

  • Hiring freezes and social distancing measures are prevalent and layoffs and furloughs are rising as a result of shutdowns.

  • The majority of employers surveyed are allowing employees to use their paid time off and some are assisting with childcare issues. Telemedicine is becoming more of a focus.

  • The impact of COVID-19 varies by industry, with manufacturing, non-profit, healthcare, professional and finance/insurance organizations having a slightly more positive outlook.

“The COVID-19 pandemic is raising questions among employers about employee benefits policies and coverages as a result of remote work arrangements, childcare challenges, and furloughs,” said Sally Prather, National Employee Benefits Leader at Alera Group.

“Despite the severity of the situation, employers are promoting resilience through EAP and wellness resources, and where onboarding can continue, turning to virtual methods,” said Karen English, Senior Vice President at Spring Consulting Group, an Alera Group company.

Continued English, “As employers work to navigate this current crisis, proactive response planning, re-evaluating benefits policies and plans, and leveraging health and benefits technology will be keys to preparing for future wide-spread disruptions.”

The Alera Group survey was conducted online from March 27 to April 6, 2020, and consisted of 831 employers across various sizes, industries and regions. Visit the Alera Group website to read the report: https://aleragroup.com/coronavirus/.

Billon’s Distributed Ledger Technology Enables Polish Banks to Go Paperless

Leave a comment



WARSAW, Poland, and LONDON (PRWEB)

Retail banks in Poland began providing customers with notifications of commissions and fees changes on blockchain via a new document management product offered by the Polish Credit Bureau (BIK, or Biuro Informacji Kredytowej in Polish). Banks use the BIK Blockchain Platform powered by distributed ledger technology (DLT), provided by the British-Polish fintech Billon Group and based on a new type of architecture storing full documents entirely in the blockchain. The aim is to eliminate paper-based client-facing notifications as well as to fully comply with MiFID II, GDPR and related regulations requiring a durable medium for such notifications.

The news comes amidst the growing concern that traditional documentation and delivery methods – including e-mail, internal banking communications and paper delivery – fall short of today’s increased need for security and authentication. Under the new approach, banks’ encrypted notification and legal agreements with clients will be stored on a distributed ledger, accessible via a portal managed by the credit bureau, so that customers can rely on having authentic and immutable documentation that the bank cannot change and which is available even when they are no longer clients of the bank.


  • The BIK Blockchain Platform assigns a unique address to every document and distributes the data to many network nodes in a way that provides extremely high database resilience and individual document tamper resistance.

  • The platform uniquely stores whole documents within the distributed ledger, including logic and signature. This eliminates the need to maintain expensive and vulnerable additional server storage, which is common for other forms of blockchain.

  • The BIK platform can be deployed in sectors outside the banking industry, including storing legal agreements, insurance claims or other high value documents.

BIK began development using Billon’s DLT system in May 2018 and field tested the system in a pilot with a group of five banks. BIK maintains records for over 25 million Poles and dozens of Polish banks.

“This launch marks the first step of commercialisation of the BIK Blockchain Platform. This version eliminates the need for paper notifications. Further versions will focus on streamlining complex multi-party processes and expand to other market sectors in Poland,” said BIK CEO Mariusz Cholewa.

“Managing documents on DLT is a much safer and cheaper solution than using paper,” said Wojtek Kostrzewa, CEO of Billon Group. “It is gratifying to see banks as progressive institutions taking advantage of the regulatory compliant ‘civilised blockchain’ solutions Billon developed specifically for regulated industries like these.”

***

BIK (Biuro Informacji Kredytowej S.A.) collects and provides data on the credit history of bank clients, credit unions, etc. from the entire credit market in Poland. BIK has the largest data collection on individual clients and entrepreneurs, including information on 147 million accounts belonging to 25 million individuals and a credit history of a total of 1.4 million companies, farmers and other entities, including 845 thousand micro-entrepreneurs. Individual clients can monitor their credit history through the online portal http://www.bik.pl. BIK Alerts service fulfills a social role and protects individuals against credit extortions or delays in repayment.

Billon unleashed the potential of blockchain by creating efficient and scalable distributed ledger technology (DLT) for business. Billon has developed the initial assumptions of blockchain technology, building a protocol that is extremely fast, fully secure and ready to be used in accordance with existing regulations. We used it at the beginning to save national currencies and micropayments, but we expanded our vision to save documents and data and identity management in a blockchain structure. Thanks to this, Billon has a unique opportunity to provide measurable business benefits to banks, companies and ordinary users in a regulated environment.

Billon was founded in Great Britain in December 2015 on the basis of an earlier research project created in Poland. Its development has been supported by numerous R&D grants, including those from the EU Horizon 2020 framework program. Today, its offices in London and Warsaw employ an international team of over 80 people. The company has a license of an electronic money publisher in Great Britain and Poland.

Billon works to implement its technology commercially with leading business partners, such as FIS in the US and BIK (the Polish credit office) in Poland. In November 2018, the company won the Global FinTech Hackcelerator at the Singapore FinTech Festival, showcasing a solution to zero-cost blockchain micropayments. On October 17, 2019 Billon won the Elevator Lab accelerator, qualifying to the partnership programme by Raiffeisen Bank International to work on e-money transactions with digitised euro on DLT.

A Tech-Enabled, Two-Sided Market Designed to Connect Difference Makers with Opportunities to Make a Difference

Leave a comment



NEW YORK (PRWEB)

Raines International, one of the country’s leading executive search firms, announced today the launch of the Raines Talent Marketplace, founded by advertising and media industry veteran and innovator Matt Seiler. The digital platform, which Mr. Seiler conceived prior to joining Raines in 2019, was launched today as a membership program to accelerate a company’s ability to identify and engage exceptional candidates for short, mid and even long-term engagements.

The Raines Talent Marketplace (https://rainesinternational.com/talent-management/) is a highly-curated, executive level digital platform designed to collect and input professional background information into Raines’ proprietary talent management model, and make it instantly available to companies looking to make a difference. Candidates are drawn from six verticals and represent more than 12 senior job functions.

Mr. Seiler said that the marketplace is a critical part of the evolution of the talent landscape, and the pandemic has advanced its launch. The Talent Marketplace is ideally suited to two very different segments of today’s business spectrum: those companies experiencing huge growth, such as tele and video communications, healthcare, all things delivery and many CPGs; as well as those experiencing the need for restructure or retrenchment, such as hospitality, quick-service restaurants and airlines. Now faced with the need to engage new senior leaders for short-term business conditions, hiring organizations require the expertise that Raines can uniquely deliver in vetting talent for specific business opportunities.

“There are a number of industries that are thriving now, causing a surge in demand for high-level talent,” said Mr. Seiler. “By May, our product will offer a sophisticated, highly-targeted and user-friendly interface enabling businesses to immediately identify and engage talent uniquely suited to the role. We are committed to becoming the definitive destination for high-level executives and companies seeking outstanding leaders for their businesses.”

Ms. Carolyn Everson, Vice President, Global Business Group, at Facebook, said: “I am so excited to see the Raines Talent Marketplace come to life. This is exactly what we all need, now more than ever. The right talent in the right place will make huge differences for businesses no matter what their current challenge. Matt Seiler has always been someone challenging the status quo and the Talent Marketplace will do just that.”

The Talent Marketplace is the latest announcement from Raines, which this year celebrates its 51st anniversary. Since the firm announced Mr. Dan Smith as Chief Executive Officer last year, Raines has opened offices in Buenos Aires, Chicago and Washington, D.C., and expanded its senior management team, including Mr. Seiler, Innovation Practice Leader John J. Keller and last month, Patrick Gray. Mr. Gray, former U.S. Army Intelligence Officer, has joined as a Managing Director and Head of the company’s Diversified Industrials Practice with particular expertise in mission critical sectors and functions. Mr. Gray, who will open and oversee the firm’s Washington, D.C., office, will focus on the aviation, aerospace and defense, national security, government services, packaging and engineered components industries.

About Raines International:

Raines International is an executive search firm committed to making a difference through leadership.
