Kuvare (Chicago area) is expanding its use of Zinnia (Greenwich, Conn.) technology to support its life and annuity product, digital experience and operational-efficiency strategy.

Kuvare will broaden adoption of Zahara, Zinnia’s policy administration system, and Zinnia Live, the company’s digital experience platform, according to a Zinnia statement. The expanded engagement also includes additional core platforms supporting product innovation, policyholder and advisor experience, and operational efficiency across Kuvare’s enterprise.
Zinnia says the relationship is designed to help Kuvare accelerate product launches, modernize policyholder and advisor experiences, and support growth without proportional increases in cost or operating complexity.
“Carriers today are navigating real pressure with new product demand, distribution complexity, cost efficiency, and the consumer and advisor expectation of a modern digital experience,” comments George Esposito, CEO, Zinnia. “Kuvare has been a long-standing partner, and when carriers have the right technology foundation, they can move faster, serve better, and grow more efficiently.”
In April 2026, Kuvare launched Guidepath, a fixed indexed annuity developed and deployed on Zahara. Zinnia says the launch reflects Kuvare’s broader strategy to use Zahara as a platform for product development.

Perfect Fit
“Kuvare has a dynamic and adaptive operating model that incorporates several world-class partners with state-of-the-art technology, and Zinnia’s Zahara and Zinnia Live fit perfectly given their market capabilities,” comments Carlos Sierra, COO, Kuvare. “Integrating those new capabilities into Kuvare’s overall ecosystem is a natural step that expands our relationship with Zinnia as we continue to reduce our product development go-to-market cycle, enhance our delivery efficiency, and provide a better advisor experience with a sharp focus on customer service.”
Zinnia provides technology for the life and annuity industry, supporting carriers, distributors, advisors and consumers. Kuvare is an international financial services platform with nearly $50 billion in assets supporting life insurance, annuities, reinsurance, advisory and asset management businesses.
