Navigating Murky Waters: MICR Printing for the Insurance Industry

Nathan Cross July 28, 2023

Just as the ocean holds many unseen perils, so does the use of non-MICR ink in your check and document printing processes. In this piece, we will explore the correlation between the hidden dangers of sharks in the water and the risks associated with using non-MICR and standard MICR ink in insurance document production. We will also outline how TROY Group's MICR printing solutions offer a haven, protecting insurers from potential pitfalls.

 

The Ocean of Risks in Insurance

 

Just like the vast ocean, the insurance industry can be treacherous. From fraudulent claims to regulatory compliance, insurers need to navigate these risks carefully to avoid sinking. One major risk lies in the realm of printing checks, using non-MICR ink. These everyday operations can expose insurers to costly errors and potential issues with the bank, like manual processing and additional fees. 

 

MICR, or MICR (Magnetic Ink Character Recognition) is the technology that enables the secure processing of checks, a fundamental financial instrument used by businesses worldwide. However, just using MICR ink won't protect from dangers lurking in the deep, like check fraud through alteration and forgery.
