Infosys to Acquire Stratus to Bolster P&C Expertise

Global digital services leader Infosys has announced a strategic move to acquire Stratus, a technology solutions provider dedicated to the property and casualty (P&C) insurance industry.

The acquisition is designed to strengthen the presence of Infosys within the sector and scale its ability to deliver AI-powered digital transformations for global P&C clients.

Headquartered in the US, Stratus maintains a workforce of over 450 experts. The firm is a prominent Guidewire Software partner, providing end-to-end capabilities across the Guidewire InsuranceSuite – including PolicyCenter, ClaimCenter and BillingCenter – as well as cloud migrations and managed services.

Strengthening the P&C value chain

The integration of Stratus' specialist consulting expertise with the global reach of Infosys aims to address the increasing demand for core modernisation. 

Stratus brings deep domain knowledge across personal, commercial, workers' compensation and specialty lines.

This is supported by a dedicated data practice with capabilities in Guidewire CDA, Databricks and Microsoft Fabric, positioning the firm as a scaled partner for complex, cloud-led P&C transformations.

By combining these assets with the Infosys Topaz AI and Infosys Cobalt cloud offerings, the company intends to support insurers in data-driven transformation and the enhancement of customer experiences.

Kannan Amaresh, SVP & Head of Insurance, Infosys, notes: “AI is fundamentally transforming the global insurance industry, strengthening decision-making across underwriting, claims, and fraud detection, while making systems intelligent and significantly improving operational efficiency. 

“The P&C segment is leading AI adoption in the insurance sector, driven by the need for claims automation, advanced underwriting, and sophisticated risk modeling amid claim volumes and elevated risks exposure. Infosys is unlocking AI value for P&C insurers through digital and data-led transformation. 

“By combining Stratus' deep technology consulting capabilities with Infosys' established leadership in insurance sector, we are further enhancing our ability to drive value for our clients. We are excited to welcome Stratus and its leadership team to the Infosys family.”

The P&C segment is currently at the forefront of AI adoption due to the necessity of managing sophisticated risk modelling and high claim volumes. The acquisition expands the footprint of Infosys with new insurance customers and key buying centres across the US, Canada and India.

Chuck Fillizola, CEO of Stratus, comments: “Stratus was built to help property and casualty insurers modernise their core platforms with deep domain expertise, disciplined execution and meaningful outcomes while putting people at the heart of every engagement.

"The future of insurance transformation requires more than technology. It demands execution rigor and the ability to operationalise AI across delivery and operations.

“Joining Infosys allows us to carry this mission forward at global scale by combining our Guidewire and P&C specialisation with Infosys Topaz and Infosys Cobalt. 

“This is a powerful strategic fit that accelerates innovation while preserving the consulting-led, human-centred culture our clients, partners and teams rely on.”

Looking ahead for an AI future 

The move allows the mission of Stratus to continue at a global scale, specifically by pairing Guidewire specialisation with broader AI and cloud platforms.

The deal includes the acquisition of repeatable delivery frameworks and industry-specific accelerators designed to enable high-quality transformations.

The transaction is expected to close during the first quarter of FY 2027, subject to the completion of customary closing conditions.
