Innovation intelligence brief
Innovation intelligence brief
Insurance risk analytics and reporting software we wish we had while preparing materials for the C-level executives of asset & liability risk committees at large multinational insurers throughout Asia.
What became of it
Blocked · Low confidence · Last verified 2026-10-17
Research is blocked: there was not enough public evidence to establish what became of this innovation. Nothing below should be read as a verified 2026 status.
As catalogued
A digital asset-liability management (ALM) analytics and reporting platform aimed at the risk committees and C-level executives of large multinational insurers in Asia, replacing manual board-pack preparation.
2026 reality
The catalog domain www.coherentasia.com no longer resolves, and a startup database flags Coherent Asia, Limited (created 2016, digital ALM platform for insurers) as probably inactive with the domain possibly disabled or for sale. The LinkedIn page still describes a 2-10 person North Point, Hong Kong company; no current product or activity was found.
Not established. The Hong Kong 'Coherent Group' of insurtech start-ups, including Coherent Capital Advisors Ltd (founded 2013; co-founders Eric Forgy, Fred Ngan and Michael Chan, who published on ALM for Asian life insurers in 2015-2016), later became the insurtech Coherent, which sells the Spark spreadsheet-to-API logic engine; no source explicitly states that Coherent Asia, Limited was part of this group or that the ALM platform was continued.
insurer ALM reporting for Asian risk committees was a niche B2B need; if the team is the same as Coherent's, the capability that survived in the market is product-logic tooling (Spark) rather than ALM analytics.
REVIEW · Confirmed the Motherbase 'probably non active' entry (created 2016, digital ALM platform), the Coherent Capital Advisors/Coherent Group CEO appointment (2018-02-02) and the Cathay-led USD 14m Series A (November 2020); none of the Coherent sources mentions Coherent Asia, Limited, so the link stays unconfirmed and the record stays BLOCKED.
