The launch includes the roll-out of the Sapiens ALIS Agent and Commission module to manage MTL's sales and distribution network. The deployment of Sapiens ALIS completes the first phase of a multi-phased transformation initiative to modernize MTL's technical infrastructure. The program includes utilizing the Sapiens ALIS platform to support all of MTL's product offerings, including whole life, universal life, term and fixed annuities for new business and its in-force book of business.

"The ALIS system was the right choice for our modernization initiative," said Steve Batza, MTL president and CEO. "Sapiens ALIS provides us with the functionality and flexibility to more efficiently process our business and support our growth plans. The continued focus and commitment of Sapiens' team of skilled professionals were crucial in helping us to achieve the critical first phase of this complex project."

"We thank MTL for the opportunity to work closely with its team through every step of the implementation," said Ron Karam, president of Sapiens' North America Retirement Services and Insurance division. "Introducing a new policy administration system is one of the more challenging initiatives an insurance company will face when modernizing its infrastructure. MTL's structured and deliberate approach to this challenge was a key to the project's success."

"We are excited to have achieved this important milestone with MTL," said Roni Al-Dor, president and CEO of Sapiens. "Sapiens is pleased that MTL is already deriving tangible value from Sapiens ALIS and we look forward to continuing to work with the MTL team as they expand the use of the system."
