It helps map customer segments and value propositions alongside channels and customer relationships, including the role broker relationships may play in bringing suitable risks to the business. Revenue streams can be considered with key resources such as underwriting expertise and data capabilities; key activities such as risk selection, policy administration and claims handling; key partnerships; and the cost structure created by systems, vendor models and integrations.
