SubroCentre is a web-based subrogation platform that enables users to exchange subrogation demands electronically and attach supporting documents. The platform was originally used in the international marine cargo market, capturing data such as bills of lading, survey reports, estimates, photographs and other evidentiary documents to negotiate settlements online. The model can be deployed more widely for other classes of business.
