    Overview

    Understanding W. R. Berkley integration

    Who this is for: Managing general agents, brokers, wholesalers, administrators, reinsurers and finance teams that exchange data with W. R. Berkley.

    W. R. Berkley operates as Berkley, a commercial lines insurer made up of many specialized businesses, each focused on an industry, product or region. Its website is berkley.com. It is also searched for as Berkley.

    This page is an integration guide. It does not reproduce W. R. Berkley's specifications. We looked for public EDI or integration documentation from W. R. Berkley and found none we could verify, so this page stays general guidance. Connection requirements usually come from W. R. Berkley itself, through its onboarding team, its companion guides or its partner portal, and they can differ by line of business, program, state and region.

    Specialty insurers work through brokers, wholesalers and managing general agents, and exchange policy, premium and loss reports, often called bordereaux, claims data and payments with them and with reinsurers. These move as ACORD data, XML, agreed flat files, spreadsheets or portal uploads, and the layouts differ by program and by partner. ECOM can read and integrate ACORD data; the formats and versions a partner uses are confirmed during scoping. Everything on this page that is not attributed to W. R. Berkley's own pages is general practice, not W. R. Berkley's published requirement; confirm each point with W. R. Berkley before you build maps or test.

    Connectivity

    How companies connect

    • AS2 or SFTP

      Many insurers and administrators exchange files directly over SFTP or AS2. Confirm which methods W. R. Berkley accepts.

      General guidance

    • Network or clearinghouse

      Some exchanges run through a value-added network or clearinghouse that translates and routes files to the partner.

      General guidance

    • Portals and APIs

      General guidance

    Challenges

    Common integration challenges

    • A layout per program

      Bordereaux and policy files differ by program and partner, so one source record is mapped separately for each.

    • Specifications by request

      Format specifications usually reach you through the insurer or through ACORD membership rather than a public download, so scoping starts by collecting them.

    • Reconciliation

      Premium, loss and payment records must agree between partners, or the gaps surface as disputes at period end.

    • Confirm the current requirements

      Document sets, versions and delivery rules change, and they come from W. R. Berkley directly, so confirm the current ones before building maps or testing.

    1. Confirm the entity, program and region you report under.
    2. Ask for the reporting layout, schedule and any validation rules.
    3. Agree how files are delivered and who receives them.
    4. Map your policy and loss data to the layout.
    5. Test with sample files and review rejected records.
    6. Reconcile premium, losses and payments each period.
