Insurance brokers who have prior experience in the insurance field would know the critical value of insurance reconciliation. If you are an experienced insurance broker, you’re free to skip the introduction part. But if you’re a newbie or if you want to know how reconciliation influences your business, continue reading on.
Why is account reconciliation important in the industry?
Account reconciliation is done to compare the transactions you have recorded in your company’s financial accounts with the statements from external sources like banks or other financial institutions. This ensures that account statements balances with each other. It is vital if you want to produce accurate, reliable, and top-quality financial statements.
To put it in simpler terms, you compare your company’s account records with bank records and find if everything matches. Got it?
In the case of insurance, reconciliation is the most needed process to avoid fraudulent or extra-paid credit card transactions. We have heard so many sad stories from insurance agencies and brokers who were experiencing errors in transactions. They wish they were doing reconciliation.
For better understanding, let’s get into a scenario.
Scenario 1: The amount to be paid for buying a policy is 4000/- and it was mistakenly written as 5000/- in the invoice statement. Verdict: Loss
Scenario 2: You have purchased 8 different policies from one insurance agency but didn’t raise invoice against every policy you have purchased (unknowingly). Verdict: Loss
Performing reconciliation will save you from these worse situations. You can keep track of all transactions and reconcile balances to keep you from committing human errors or missing a payment.
So, if you need your financial based reports to be accurate, you have to reconcile your accounts. In the beginning, you can update each and every transactions in your excel sheet.
