Warranty pricing and reserving analytics

Stay ahead of the competition with an extended warranty program that offers more value to your customers and less financial risk to your business.

While warranties are an integral part of many industries – from manufacturing and construction to retail – pricing warranties incorrectly can impact financial performance.

Priced too low, and your warranty program could be unprofitable. Priced too high, and both your warranties and the underlying products could become unattractive to customers, denting future product sales.

Pricing warranties accurately means accounting for the geographical and product-specific risk factors that affect the reliability of your underlying products. Without this insight, plus a deep understanding of the historical profitability of your warranties, your program risks being unprofitable, misaligned with your sales and risk strategies, or leading to balance sheet volatility because you reserved too much, or too little to meet your liabilities.
