Multi-line specialty insurer HSB, part of Munich Re, has partnered with property and casualty insurer CNA to deliver IoT sensor solutions tailored to small and mid-sized commercial clients.

As per the agreement, CNA will deliver HSB’s IoT technology solutions to its small and mid-size commercial policyholders.
