Case Study

Open Insurance Brazil

How Brazil extended open data sharing to the insurance sector — powered by Raidiam Connect and Raidiam Assure.

Case Study

This is what expansion looks like: open finance infrastructure extended to insurance without rebuilding

Brazil built the open finance foundations. Open insurance was the first expansion. Same infrastructure. No rebuild.

Part 1

The Challenge

This is the expansion story in action. Following the success of Open Finance, Brazil's insurance regulator SUSEP (Superintendência de Seguros Privados) mandated Open Insurance — requiring insurers, brokers, and intermediaries to share data through governed APIs. The open finance infrastructure extended to insurance without rebuilding. This was the world's first regulated open insurance ecosystem. The challenges:

  • 42 data providers (insurers) needed to be onboarded
  • 42 data recipients needed accreditation
  • The ecosystem needed to be operational within months
  • Conformance to insurance-specific API profiles was required
  • The trust infrastructure needed to interoperate with the existing Open Finance ecosystem
Part 2

The Solution

Raidiam extended its existing Brazilian trust infrastructure to support the insurance sector. Raidiam Connect provided a parallel federation for Open Insurance, while maintaining interoperability with the Open Finance directory.

Key deliverables:

  • Ecosystem control plane for insurance participants
  • Insurance-specific conformance profiles in Raidiam Assure
  • Participant onboarding workflows adapted for insurers
  • Cross-ecosystem trust where participants operate in both finance and insurance

Impact

Open Insurance Brazil is the clearest proof that the “build once, expand” model works. Raidiam's federation model is not limited to banking. The same control plane that manages banks and fintechs now manages insurers and brokers — no new infrastructure, no rebuild, just additive expansion.

Open Insurance went live swiftly, with over 60 participants registered within six weeks of launch — giving consumers increased access to insurance products and services through a governed, interoperable ecosystem. The foundations built for open finance made this expansion fast, governed, and cost-effective.
