Communications and big data technology platform builder
FingerMotion (OTCQX: FNGR) is continuing to build reinsurance industry opportunities for its Sapientus data analysis platform, announcing Dec. 6 that its 99 percent-owned subsidiary Shanghai JiuGe Information Technology Co., Ltd. inked a collaborative research alliance with global reinsurance powerhouse Munich Re to improve understanding of morbidity and behavioral patterns in China’s marketplace, focusing on life and health insurance.
“Today’s news sets the stage for a longer-term strategic mission to reinvent the way we provide insurance to customers in the future and transform the overall industry,” FingerMotion CEO Martin Shen stated (

“All the vital elements are in place,” Shen added. “With our distribution platform that enables wide-scale marketing throughout China, a growing network of partners and ongoing accumulation of increasing data points and observations will further strengthen our analytic power and extend our reach, enabling us to aid in the industry’s effort to better stratify risks and contain moral hazard, ultimately augmenting the efficiency of the overall insurance system.”
FingerMotion is a U.S.-based mobile tech services provider that is focused on China’s consumer phone market, building revenues primarily from short and multimedia messaging (SMS and MMS) services there. But the company’s Sapientus division has caught the attention of insurance industry players, most notably global insurer Pacific Life.
Pacific Life’s Re-insurance division in China finalized an agreement with FingerMotion earlier this year to receive consumer risk data generated by FingerMotion for efficiently processing claims while screening for fraud and abuse.
China’s insurance risk and credit risk evaluation infrastructure is still underdeveloped, creating a particular need in the country for solutions such as the information Sapientus offers to help companies analyze consumer behaviors and establish predictive algorithms.
“This is the third consecutive quarter of Big Data revenues and we expect it to continue and eventually outpace our existing revenue streams,” Shen stated earlier this fall (

The quarterly financial report released in conjunction with Shen’s statement noted 25 percent year-over-year growth in revenues attributed to SMS and MMS services, and an overall quarterly revenue growth to $5.39 million.
