Convex Insurance | Insurance | 700 | $948M | United Kingdom | Snowflake | Snowflake Data Cloud | Data Warehouse | 2019 | n/a |
In 2019, Convex Insurance implemented Snowflake Data Cloud as its centralized Data Warehouse to underpin analytics and operational reporting. Convex Insurance is a specialty insurer and reinsurer operating from London, Bermuda, Europe, and the United States with a small permanent headcount and an emphasis on rapid, API driven underwriting and distribution.
Snowflake Data Cloud was configured to consolidate transactional feeds and third party data for underwriting, pricing, and claims analytics, delivering an elastic cloud store and SQL based analytical capabilities. The implementation emphasized ELT pipelines, normalized schema design for rating and quoting workflows, and data sharing constructs to support model scoring and business intelligence across underwriting teams.
Snowflake was integrated into Convexs best of breed technology stack via Boomi Integration and API Management, and coexisted with Azure Active Directory, Amazon S3, Datadog, Eventbridge, Jira, and a Postgres database as part of the listed integration inventory. The architecture routed normalized policy, pricing engine outputs, distribution API traffic, and telemetry into Snowflake to provide a single analytical layer for underwriting, claims, and distribution reporting.
Governance centered on API led ingestion, role based access through directory integration, and centralized analytics ownership to replace batch spreadsheet workflows with operational reports. The combined Boomi and Snowflake deployment supported Convexs shift to real time claims insights and underpinned the digital underwriting platform that delivered high volume quoting and rapid decisioning to distribution partners.

Schroders | Banking and Financial Services | 6071 | $3.2B | United Kingdom | London Stock Exchange Group | LSEG Refinitiv Datastream | Analytics and BI | 2014 | n/a |
In 2014 Schroders implemented LSEG Refinitiv Datastream to support Analytics and BI for performance and risk analysis across its London wealth management teams. The deployment concentrated on time series market data access and benchmarking workflows used by Performance and Risk Analysts to deliver both ad-hoc client reporting and scheduled fund monitoring.
LSEG Refinitiv Datastream was configured to support ex-post risk measures, multi-asset attribution and bespoke performance and risk templates aligned to GIPS standards. The implementation covered monthly reporting feeds to internal and external risk monitors, PUT performance reporting to multiple managers and auditors, and the production of in depth attribution outputs for fund managers.
Operational integrations and data flows included extensive use of market data systems Lipper, DataStream and Eikon to build custom peer universes and benchmarking sets, and the supply of performance data to ARC and Enhance for peer group analysis. Attribution and risk scenario creation fed model portfolio workflows using Bloomberg and Reuters inputs, supporting front office decisioning and global wealth management reporting in London.
Governance focused on template standardization, a monthly reporting cadence and analyst-led training and support workshops for front office users. The Schroders performance team retained responsibility for generated legacy performance data and managed migration activities into the new performance system, while assisting projects to improve data availability and operational efficiency.
