The Hartford has opened a Y‑Risk office in San Francisco, a specialty underwriting business focused on insuring the shared economy and emerging technologies.
The company says the San Franciso Y-Risk location will strengthen its ability to serve customers “operating at the edge of technological change” thanks to its proximity to Silicon Valley, California.

The company uses telematics, IoT and predictive analytics to inform underwriting and risk engineering by analyzing real-time data—mileage, trip counts, device telemetry.
