Why has electronic signature become essential in insurance?
In an environment where speed and reliability are paramount, insurance professionals must streamline underwriting, reduce friction and secure every signature. Paper-based delays (printing, sending, chasing) slow down quote conversion, increase drop-offs and add to administrative costs.
Electronic signature enables insurers, brokers and mutuals to digitise underwriting, renewal and cancellation journeys, while meeting eIDAS and GDPR requirements.

Why is electronic signature valid for an insurance policy?
In Europe, electronic signature is governed by the eIDAS regulation, which gives it legal recognition in all member states. When it meets the criteria of signer identification, document integrity and traceability, it carries evidential value comparable to a handwritten signature. In the insurance sector, it can be used for:
- Underwriting policies (home, auto, health, life, public liability)
- Endorsements and contractual amendments
- Policy cancellations
Depending on the level of risk and the nature of the policy, it is possible to opt for a Simple Electronic Signature (SES), an Advanced Electronic Signature (AES) or a Qualified Electronic Signature (QES), in order to match the security level to the stakes of the file.
Protect your transactions against document fraud
Identity fraud and forged documents are major issues in insurance, particularly during remote underwriting and contractual amendments. With secure signature journeys and complete traceability, you strengthen the reliability of files, limit risks and improve compliance.
