About XML for P&C/Surety

The strength of eXtensible Markup Language (XML) is that it provides a generic way to process data on the Internet and an efficient way to transfer structured data between applications. In the Property & Casualty business, ACORD XML provides a foundation for real-time exchange of data between producers, insurers, rating bureaus, service providers and more. ACORD's P&C/Surety XML specification is developed and enhanced by ACORD Members. New developments are presented either as proposals for working groups and/or as proposed changes to future specification releases. The ACORD P&C Steering Committee oversees the development of the specification and determines which new working group proposals will move forward.
