Unqork will collaborate with industry leaders to create faster, more streamlined processes for both financial professionals and consumers
Unqork, the leading AI-first enterprise application platform provider, is proud to announce its membership in the Insured Retirement Institute (IRI), the leading financial services trade association for the insured retirement industry.
The partnership marks a significant step in Unqork’s ongoing commitment to empowering insurers and financial services firms to rapidly build modern, secure digital solutions, while lowering maintenance costs and total cost of ownership.
Insured retirement carriers/distributors still struggle with highly manual processes, slow turnaround times, and rising operational costs. Meanwhile, demand for secure income products like insured retirement plans is growing, as longer life spans, inflation, and rising healthcare costs leave more than 64% concerned that they will outlive their 401Ks and other retirement savings, according to a 2025 Allianz study.
Unqork helps some of the world’s largest insurers—including 6 of the top retirement group firms and 5 of the top 10 life insurers—accelerate digital transformation, reduce operational costs, and enhance customer experience, including Equitable and Principal Financial.
As an IRI member, Unqork will collaborate with industry leaders to create faster, more streamlined processes for both financial professionals and consumers, from policy issuance to more servicing.
In particular, Unqork will contribute to IRI’s digital-first strategy for standardized rules of engagement for how the industry delivers essential data.
“We are proud to become a member of the Insured Retirement Institute and join a community dedicated to strengthening retirement outcomes for millions of Americans,” says Chandresh “CK” Kothari, Global Head of Insurance, Unqork. “IRI membership aligns with our mission to help insurers and financial institutions to rapidly deliver complex, secure, and compliant solutions without writing a single line of code, so they can remain agile in an evolving market.”
