Irdai Proposes Public Insurance Registry to Enhance Transparency and Access
The Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (Irdai) has proposed a Public Insurance Registry (PIR), a digital public infrastructure designed to consolidate insurance data across providers while maintaining data at source institutions. The PIR aims to enhance transparency, reduce information gaps, and foster competition by enabling easier access to verified insurance information for policyholders, insurers, and other stakeholders. It is expected to improve underwriting, claims processing, customer service, and financial inclusion, aligning with the Sabka Bima Sabki Raksha Act, 2025. The proposal is currently in the consultation phase with detailed specifications forthcoming.
