How can Black Insurance provide both, transparency of the insurance industry, and privacy for policyholders?

The answer is using two blockchains, a permissioned blockchain and the public Ethereum blockchain. Brokers, investors and insurers interact in private transaction on a Hyperledger Fabric-based blockchain. This private chain which is interfaced with the public Ethereum blockchain. https://medium.com/blackinsurance/dealing-with-privacy-in-smart-contract-based-insurances-4087319f9b48

We have previously talked about implementing insurance products using smart contracts and how insurance-related assets can be represented on the blockchain. In this article, we look at the reason behind the selection of the Black Insurance technology stack, using it as an example for blockchain-based enterprise applications.

[moderator's note: consecutive posts merged]

The insurance industry is one of the few examples, in which the blockchain can produce a significant impact. In the insurance business, it is clear that traditional insurers are a centralized source of delays and inefficiencies. Blockchain technology allows replacing these insurers with efficient automated processes, reducing administrative overhead and time to market.

How Blockchain Will Help Small Businesses Challenge Even the Largest Rivals...

Hi Copy, great question! Black does not imply illegal, we are totally legal! 

Black is a digital insurance company on blockchain. Our platform connects insurance
brokers directly with capital enabling them to launch their own virtual insurance
companies. Thus removing the trusted third parties (Insurance Companies) from
the value chain.

First, Black is a platform where our business users can design insurance covers, get them capitalised, and write policies. Formally, it's Black Insurance that is writing the policies on behalf of the business users, but we don't design, underwrite or sell the insurance products ourselves - that's up to our users.

We have a roadmap for applying for an insurance license just in Europe (EEA), currently. Becoming a licensed insurer is unfortunately a costly and time consuming exercise, but we have great advisors and everything is in place.

This means that in 2019, we and our users are only eligible to write insurance policies in EEA. However, a portion of the future business users (we have a network of dozens insurance brokers and other parties) already have the necessary licenses, and they can start issuing policies in other countries right after the platform is live.
Down the road, we intend to apply for licenses at other markets as well, with current plans to start expansion with the US.

Hi! What are you called "Black" insurance? Black is associated with something unregulated and illegal (Black market)

Hi Drwoo, I agree! Democratising insurance further will only benefit us all 

When the legal and technical requirements change, we will be happy to explore these opportunities.

I understand. I just thought it might be very interesting if individuals could offer insurance for very specific things they personally know or experienced.

Permissioned blockchains deployed in insurance consortia yield comprehensive industry benefits across the value chain in three categories: (1) preventing fraud,
(2) championing interoperability in multi-party processes and
(3) facilitating consumer trust and ease of auditing through data transparency and immutability.

The research claimed that those companies that would benefit most from blockchain include those with the need for (1) transparency in transactions, (2) current dependence legacy storage systems and (3) a high volume of transmitted information. https://techcrunch.com/2018/04/19/do-you-need-a-blockchain/?guccounter=1

Hi Drwoo, due to legal and technical requirements, currently we will offer the platform for Agents, Brokers and MGAs to launch their insurance startup.

We connect the idea to the capital directly, replacing the parties that are not needed in the value chain with  technology.  We  will  do  this  through  crowdfunding,  also  giving  smaller  investors  a  way  in.  This  leaner  model  gives  more  responsibilities  to  insurance  brokers  and  control  over  the  products  they 
are selling. Insurers as we know them today are simply a trusted third party - blockchain gives us an alternative to that and the need for insurers disappears.

Couldn't it also be an option that any individual can come up with an insurance product and offer it via your platform?

Black Insurance will use two types of tokens:

Black Platform Token (BLCK). All platform users will use BLCK for managing insurance on the Black platform, and demand for BLCK will increase as more insurance business is conducted on the platform.

Black Syndicate Tokens  (BST) which is a security token. BST will be issued when the platform is ready.To learn more about Black:
