Industry-Leading Risk Management Information System to be Available On-the-Go

HARTFORD, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- To help business insurance customers access vital risk management information from anywhere, at any time, Travelers (NYSE: TRV) announced today the mobile version of e-CARMA, its proven Risk Management Information System application. Developed by Travelers National Accounts and Risk Management Information Services (RMIS), the mobile e-CARMA platform will be accessible on any mobile device with a Web browser, including the iPhone(R) and BlackBerry(R) smartphones.

"Risk management professionals are more mobile than ever, visiting manufacturing facilities, regional offices and job sites around the world, helping their companies mitigate and manage their risk," said Matthew Carden, Vice President, RMIS at Travelers. "The mobile e-CARMA platform will allow risk managers to get away from their desks and laptop computers without sacrificing their access to important, mission-critical data. Soon, risk management professionals will be able to see summarized information, detailed reports and individual claim files from the field on their handheld device."

Current and potential customers and their agents and brokers attending the Risk and Insurance Management Society (RIMS) annual conference and exhibition in Boston this week will have the opportunity to see the new application in action at the Travelers Booth, #1109. The mobile e-CARMA platform will be available to all e-CARMA users later this year.

e-CARMA is the visual front-end to Travelers' suite of RMIS products, which has always allowed customers to report claims instantly, access documentation anywhere in the claim process and review key information, such as adjuster's case notes. The easy-to-use system offers a robust set of tools including customizable dashboards with intuitive navigation that significantly enhances the users' analytic capabilities. e-CARMA also offers built-in Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) reporting and recordkeeping, as well as providing links to risk control resources. e-CARMA is a proven resource for more than 15,000 customers and their agent or broker account teams who use it to manage their organization's total cost of risk.
