Port of Spain, Philadelphia and Montreal, November 28th, 2023 – Equisoft, a leading global digital solutions provider to the financial industry, is proud to announce the continuation of the successful implementation of its SaaS policy administration platform for Guardian Life Limited (Jamaica) (‘GLL’), a member of Guardian Group, the region’s largest insurance organization.
