Bordereaux Analyst

Every bordereau validated on arrival. Every version tracked.

Premium, claims and cession bordereaux in any partner layout, checked row by row against binder terms as the file lands, then generated back out in the format the receiving party requires. Exceptions queued with reasons and sources before anyone opens the spreadsheet.

The four capabilities

One engine, four capabilities.

From the file that lands to the bordereau that goes back out.

Works on premium and risk bordereaux and claims bordereaux. Reinsurers processing cedant statements and cash calls: see the Reinsurance Accounting Analyst.

The rule library

Check every row before anyone works it.

Validation runs the moment a file lands. A sample of what runs:

Cross-version diff

Every file diffed against the last one you accepted, so nothing changes silently between periods.

Financial footing

Totals recomputed on every row, so the file balances before it moves anywhere.

Commission and brokerage

Rates validated against the binder, row by row, not sampled.

Duplicate transactions

Repeats flagged before they inflate the month.

Disappearing rows

Rows present last period and missing this one, surfaced instead of silently gone.

Every check is named and explained in the validation check library.

The audit

Bordereaux checked against each other, and against every prior month.

No bank statement required. Runs as a recurring monthly audit across every programme.

Written against paid

What was written checked against what was paid, without waiting on a bank statement.

Risk against premium against claims

The three bordereaux for a programme checked against each other, not read in isolation.

Aged debt surfaced

Balances that have been outstanding longer than the programme allows.

Payments with no matching written line

A line on the paid bordereau with no written line behind it.

Endorsements that don’t match on policy number

An endorsement that doesn’t tie back to the policy it is meant to adjust.

The output

Brisc writes bordereaux as well as reads them.

Ingestion is half the job. The other half is producing the file the other end needs, in their format, on their deadline.

The bordereau in their format

Normalised to one schema, then generated back out to the layout the receiving party requires: a carrier template, a syndicate layout, your own.

From source data, not just files

A partner file, a PAS extract, or a feed straight from your data warehouse. Whatever holds the written premium record.

Ready for cash application

Validated line items hand off directly to the Reconciliation Analyst as the expected side of the match. Once cash balances, the capacity bordereau and per-carrier remittance reports are generated there.

Into your systems, not ours

Golden-schema export, or posted to your PAS, general ledger or data lake. Your systems of record stay canonical.

Validated is not the same as paid.

The Bordereaux Analyst reads any inbound layout, validates it, and writes it back out in the format the receiving party requires. The Reconciliation Analyst tells you whether the money arrived, and generates the capacity bordereau and remittance reports once it balances. A validated bordereau hands off directly as the expected side of the match. Same rule library, same evidence trail, one exception queue.

See the Reconciliation Analyst

One engine. Rules, tolerances and evidence shared across every Analyst.

FAQ

Bordereaux management, answered

Does Brisc generate bordereaux, or only read them?

Both. The Analyst reads source data in whatever form it arrives, a partner file, a PAS extract, or a feed straight from your data warehouse, normalises it to one schema, and generates the validated bordereau back out in the format the receiving party requires, whether that is a carrier template or a syndicate layout. The capacity bordereau is generated separately, by the Reconciliation Analyst, once cash is matched against the validated line items. Brisc reads bordereaux and writes them.

Do we need a standardised bordereau before Brisc can work?

No. That is the work, not the prerequisite. The Analyst takes the layout each partner actually sends, maps it once with your operations team, and reuses that mapping every month. A validated file is a good input, but nothing has to be cleaned up before you start.

What formats does it read?

Whatever your partners send: Excel, CSV, PDF, any layout, market-standard and not-remotely-standard alike. The Analyst maps a partner’s layout once and the mapping persists per program, so month two isn’t month one again. No new templates, no format mandates.

When does validation run?

At ingestion. Every row is checked as the file lands, so by the time anyone opens it the exceptions are already queued with their evidence. There’s no separate validation step to schedule, and none to forget.

Does it correct our data?

No. Anything that fails a check is flagged with the reason and the source attached, queued for your team’s judgment. Nothing is silently corrected, and nothing changes without a person deciding it should.

Bring your own bordereau. Leave with it matched.
