GFT named Leader in QKS Spark Matrix™ 2026 for Insurance Digital Transformation Services, Driving Faster, Lower-Risk Transformation

Recognition highlights GFT’s strength in delivering complex transformation at scale with speed and control

Stuttgart, April 14, 2026 – As insurers face growing pressure to modernize legacy systems, scale AI and deliver faster business outcomes, GFT Technologies has been named a Leader in the QKS Spark Matrix™: Insurance Digital Transformation Services 2026. The QKS Group SPARK Matrix™ evaluates leading providers based on capabilities, differentiation, and market impact – highlighting GFT’s strong competitive positioning and its ability to deliver complex transformation programs faster and with lower risk.

GFT helps insurers move beyond strategy to execution by modernizing core platforms, industrializing AI, and translating transformation into tangible business impact – turning regulatory requirements into a foundation for secure and scalable transformation.

Varun Singh Bisht, Analyst at QKS Group, stated: “GFT combines deep financial services expertise with strong cloud and engineering capabilities to support insurers in complex transformation programs. Its strengths in core system modernization, including Guidewire, combined with AI-driven approaches such as Wynxx, enable insurance organizations to accelerate platform transformation while maintaining control, compliance, and operational stability.”

“Supporting insurers through business-critical transformation is at the core of what we do at GFT – and it’s a domain we are deeply passionate about”, said André Gagné, CEO of GFT Canada. “This recognition highlights the strength of our unique combination of deep insurance expertise, transformation delivery capabilities, and advanced engineering knowledge. We partner with insurers across their entire transformation journey – from initial transformation through continuous optimization – ensuring they maximize business value. With AI further augmenting our services, we are more than ever the partner of choice for insurers looking to scale and modernize their business.”

GFT Drives Scalable End-to-End Transformation in the Insurance Industry

As insurers shift from isolated digital initiatives to enterprise-wide transformation, the ability to deliver at scale has become a critical differentiator. GFT combines deep insurance expertise with advanced engineering capabilities to support clients across the full transformation lifecycle – from core modernization to AI-enabled process optimization and cloud adoption. This approach enables coordinated, end-to-end transformation across front, middle-, and back-office operations. Key elements include modernizing distribution through API-driven and omnichannel platforms, decoupling product logic from legacy systems to accelerate innovation, and embedding AI across core processes such as underwriting and claims.

With its AI platform Wynxx and strong cloud expertise, GFT integrates intelligent automation, governance, and scalable architectures directly into transformation programs, driving higher development productivity while maintaining control in highly regulated environments. Built for complex, regulated insurance environments, GFT ensures regulatory compliance, data governance, security, and operational resilience, adapting seamlessly to the specific requirements of different markets and jurisdictions.

GFT supports large-scale transformation programs across Europe, Canada, Latin America, and Asia-Pacific, leveraging regional expertise and multilingual delivery to combine global scale with local market proximity.

This approach enables insurance organizations to:

• Accelerate core platform modernization 
• Launch and adapt products faster through modular, configurable architectures 
• Modernize distribution and improve quote-to-bind and servicing processes 
• Industrialize AI across underwriting, claims and operations 
• Reduce delivery risk while ensuring regulatory compliance and operational resilience

In a recent large-scale transformation, GFT, for example, migrated a leading Canadian insurer’s legacy Guidewire platform to the cloud, covering core systems and more than 50 integrations – now enabling significantly faster product launches and reduced operational complexity.

Event Notice: From Recognition to Real-World Impact

GFT translates its transformation capabilities into tangible client impact, enabling insurers to move from strategy to execution at scale. At the Guidewire Insurance Forum Europe 2026, GFT will demonstrate how insurers can leverage Guidewire, AI and cloud technologies to deliver faster, lower-risk outcomes in complex, regulated environments. This builds on GFT’s long-standing Guidewire partnership, which enables tight integration into leading core insurance platforms and ensures seamless execution across large-scale transformation programs.
