Catalis Expands Suite of Technology Solutions with Axiomatic Acquisition

Catalis

Catalis, one of North America’s leading government Software as a Service (SaaS) and integrated payments providers, is growing. Today Catalis announced it has acquired New Hampshire-based Axiomatic, a leading software provider that offers an array of web-based solutions and services throughout the United States for state property tax oversight and administration. Catalis is a trusted technology partner for thousands of US and Canadian government entities. Its acquisition of Axiomatic is part of its commitment to continue offering clients innovative technology and a growing suite of solutions, including building its Computer Aided Mass Appraisal (CAMA) subject matter expertise and offering a state-focused solution. “Catalis is thrilled to integrate Axiomatic’s solutions to automate the state property tax oversight process and to expand the valuation tools and workflow solutions we offer for end-users,” says John Kristel, CEO of Catalis. “Axiomatic’s state-level-focused tax oversight and administration solutions are a fantastic complement to Catalis’ existing product capabilities.” Founded in 2013, Axiomatic is the industry leader in modernizing property tax oversight agencies, from processes to software and policy. Its flagship product, PropTax, automates property tax oversight for state agencies across all stages of the property tax cycle through its fully configurable suite of web applications. Its easy-to-use interfaces provide state property tax administrators with the tools, automated workflows, geospatial integrations, and analysis needed to increase both efficiency and accuracy. “Catalis presented the perfect fit to the business and culture we have built over the past nine years,” says David Salzer, Co-Founder of Axiomatic. “Catalis shares Axiomatic’s traditions of excellent service, subject matter expertise, and a corporate ethos our clients and associates want to be a part of.” In 2021, a recapitalization co-led by growth equity firm PSG and leading global alternative asset firm TPG boosted Catalis’ valuation to more than $1 billion. Catalis’ latest acquisition aligns with its ambitions for expansion as the premier software and digital payments provider for North American governments. Late last month, Catalis announced a rebrand as part of the company’s natural progression. Catalis’ existing CAMA providers will directly benefit from this acquisition by gaining a deeper understanding of state reporting needs and requirements. In turn, Catalis will be able to help its county and municipal-level customers streamline their data reporting to state oversight agencies. “When we announced our rebrand, we assured our customers we would continue to provide incredible customer service and an expanded range of resources and solutions,” continues Kristel. “This acquisition is just the beginning.” About Catalis Catalis is the transformational SaaS and integrated payments partner powering all levels and sizes of government – municipal, county, state, and federal.

FAQ What is a personal statement? A personal statement is a short description of your background, interests, and goals. It is usually required as part of the application process for university, college, graduate school or postgraduate. The purpose of this essay is to give admissions officers an insight into who you are as a person and why you would make an excellent student at their school. This essay allows you to show off your personality through your writing style and provide concrete examples of how you will excel in your program. In addition to an academic transcript and test scores, your personal statement can make or break your chances of being accepted into a university or college program. While grades and test scores are important pieces of information that allow admissions officers to make informed decisions about whether or not they want to admit you, it's up to them whether or not they really want to spend time getting to know you better by reading your personal statement. By reading these essays, they get a glimpse into your personality and character as well as your interests outside of academics. These essays also allow them to identify students who have overcome significant challenges or obstacles during high school, which can be very impressive! What is a personal financial statement? A personal financial statement is a document that describes your financial situation. Your personal financial statement can be an important tool if you are applying for credit cards, loans, or insurance policies. You may need to provide a copy of your personal financial statement when applying for certain types of services or loans. Why is it required for colleges? A personal financial statement is used by government agencies and nonprofit organizations to determine eligibility for certain programs, including student loans and grants. By submitting a personal financial statement with your application, you can demonstrate your ability to pay tuition fees or other expenses associated with attending college. Some colleges also require applicants to supply parents' income information as part of their financial aid packages. In addition to being required by banks and other lenders, your personal financial statement can also be used by insurance companies and employers when deciding whether or not they want to hire someone or offer them employment benefits such as health care coverage and retirement plans. Depending on your income for the previous year, you may be eligible for additional grants that you might not otherwise know about. What is a personal mission statement? A personal mission statement is a short statement that describes who you are, what your values are, and what you want to accomplish in life. It’s a great tool for developing a sense of purpose and direction, especially during times of transition such as college applications. Your personal mission statement should be written in the first person and be concise. It’s also important to keep in mind that your personal mission statement should not be limited to academics or college admissions; it can be used throughout your life to guide decisions about jobs, relationships, and other major life events. A well-crafted personal mission statement can help you stand out from other applicants by giving the reader insight into who you are beyond grades, test scores, and activities. It allows them to see your passions, strengths, and weaknesses from your own point of view instead of an outside source like a teacher or counselor. The most effective statements are those that are honest, specific, and concrete so they can be read with ease by anyone who reads them (whether they be admissions officers or future employers). What is a law school personal statement? The personal statement as it applies to law school is your chance to let the admissions committee know who you are. You may write about any aspect of your background, including your professional experience, extracurricular activities, volunteer work, or any other information that you believe will help the committee decide whether or not they should admit you into their program. Many top-tier law schools receive thousands of applications each year, and cannot review every single one individually; instead, they rely on standardized tests like the LSAT and GPA as well as their application essays in order to determine which applicants are best suited for their programs. A strong application essay can be the deciding factor between admission and rejection because it gives an insight into who you are as a person rather than just an academic score or LSAT score alone could ever provide. What is a medical school personal statement? A medical school personal statement is an essay that describes your reasons for applying to medical school, your preparation for and commitment to this career path, your strengths as a future physician, and any other information that may be relevant to the admissions committee. Medical schools ask for this essay because they want to get to know the “real” you before making a decision about whether or not they want you in their program. In addition, because there are so many applicants for each spot at medical school (the average student applies to 8-10 programs), it helps them sort through all the applications quickly and easily. These essays are very helpful in assessing your personality and ability to communicate effectively. Since they only have one chance at getting into medical school (unlike undergraduates who can take multiple tests), it’s very important that students show themselves off in their best light with this essay. What is a personal vision statement? A personal vision statement is a 2-3 sentence statement that describes what you want to do with your life and how you're going to get there. It's a way to tell the admissions office what excites you and what you want to accomplish. Colleges are looking for students who have specific goals, who know what they want out of their education and beyond, and who have the drive and focus needed to achieve those goals. Your personal vision statement can help them identify those qualities in you. Your statement should be honest, but it doesn't need to be long or complicated. Think about what your top priorities are in life right now, and how college fits into those priorities. What do you want to pursue after graduation? What kind of impact do you hope to have on the world? How will attending this particular school help advance your goals? Your goal is not only to demonstrate your strengths as an applicant but also to show that you're someone who's thoughtful enough about his/her own life goals to articulate them clearly in writing). What is a residency personal statement? A residency personal statement is a written piece of writing that describes the reasons for pursuing residency. It is usually written by medical school applicants and can vary from one medical school to another. The residency personal statement is meant to show your enthusiasm for medicine and express why you are interested in becoming a doctor. Your residency personal statement should be honest about your motivations for applying for medical school, but it should also be specific enough to convey the unique aspects of your personality that will make you an excellent physician. Writing a residency personal statement can be difficult because there are so many ways to approach the task. The most effective way is to write down everything that comes to mind and then organize those ideas into a coherent narrative based on your own experience with medicine or healthcare. Is it legit to use a personal statement writing services? It is indeed a very common thing to do these days. A lot of students are opting for the help of professional writers to write their personal statements. The reason is obvious; they want a high-quality personal statement that can get them into their dream college. But there are a lot of people who think that this is plagiarism, which is against the rules. It is not however if you use the paper as research for writing the copy in your own words. Plagiarism is submitting someone else’s work as your own. These services do not intend for you to hand in these papers as your submission. They expect you to take inspiration from their writing and understand how it is to be formatted when writing your own. That is what makes them a legal business. The truth is that most college students have no idea how to write a personal statement, let alone the first thing about what to include in it. This is one of the reasons why many students struggle when it comes to writing their college essays. However, there are many personal statements writing services that you can use if you don't have any idea how to write your own personal statement. How to hire the best personal statement writer? When you are looking for a personal statement writer, you should look for someone who has a good understanding of the college application process. The personal statement is the most important part of your application, so it needs to be written by someone who can understand your situation and help you craft an effective essay. The first step in hiring a personal statement writer is to find out what kind of experience they have. You need to make sure that they have written college admissions essays before. If they haven't, then they probably won't be able to provide you with the help that you need, which means that it would be better to hire someone else instead. You should also look at their previous work when deciding whether or not someone is right for your needs. It's important that you ask for samples of their work before hiring them so that you can see what kind of quality they offer their customers. If their samples don't impress you, then it might be best if you continue looking elsewhere for help with your personal statement. Going with one of the top-rated writing services, like 99Papers, will ensure that you find a writer who meets your needs at the right price. They have done all the work for you. What is the best personal statement writing services in USA and UK? The most important thing in a personal statement is that it should be authentic and not exaggerated. You should be able to show your own personality in it without trying to sound like someone else. You must be able to convince the reader that your desire for higher education is genuine and sincere. The best personal statement writing/editing companies in USA and UK will give you an idea about how to write such kinds of essays effectively so that they impress the readers easily. They will help you write an inspiring statement that will convince them that you are really interested in pursuing higher studies at their institution of choice. When choosing the best personal writing services in the US or UK, you should opt for PaperHelp or EssayFactory. If you are a first-time student, they can help point you in the right direction and give you the help you need to get the placement you want. In the end... While some students may be deterred by the idea of paying for an online service to write their personal statement, it is essential to remember that this is one very important document that could make or break your application. The fact that you don't know how to begin properly shows fear, and fear never managed to get anyone into a great university. If you want nothing but the best for yourself and want a worry-free process, then hire a professional service to help you write your essays and personal statements. You’ll get 100% unique content written for you by industry experts that will inspire you to create a stunning application that is sure to get you into Harvard.

DOES HOMEOWNERS INSURANCE COVER LOST JEWELRY?

Benzinga

Homeowners insurance helps protect homeowners from life’s uncertainties. This insurance policy covers your property, liabilities for injuries, and other parts of your home. It’s no surprise people pay homeowners insurance. Lenders can force borrowers to have insurance, and it’s a helpful safeguard. Most homeowners want to protect other valuables, such as their jewelry. Below, Benzinga discusses whether insuring jewelry works for homeowners. How is Jewelry Covered by Home Insurance? Home insurance policies cover your jewelry but only up to a certain amount. If your jewelry gets stolen, your insurer will assess the jewelry’s value. Then, the insurer will replace the jewelry up to its value or your insurance policy’s limit, whichever is lower. Some insurers have lower limits for stolen jewelry than damaged jewelry. When Is Jewelry Covered By Homeowners Insurance? Homeowners insurance provides jewelry coverage under various scenarios. You can qualify for a replacement under these circumstances: Jewelry theft A natural disaster destroys jewelry and other items in your home Vandalism Damages How Much Jewelry Does a Home Insurance Policy Cover? Home insurance providers can cover expensive jewelry, ranging between $1,000 and $2,000. These caps represent the maximum an insurer will pay to give you a replacement. You will have to cover every dollar that exceeds this cap which can be a substantial out of pocket expense for items worth more than a couple of thousand dollars. You can usually get coverage for more expensive jewelry through a floater to a homeowners policy, but this additional coverage will result in higher premiums. 3 Ways to Increase Your Coverage on Jewelry Homeowners insurance is a starting point for jewelry insurance, but it may not sufficiently cover your collection. Jewelry owners can get more coverage for their prized possessions with these strategies. Raise the Sublimits in Your Policy Sublimits are separate limits in an insurance policy. Insurers may have lower limits for jewelry theft than damaged jewelry. Some homeowners insurance companies will let you raise these limits. However, you may have to pay higher premiums because insurers incur more risk when raising sublimits. Coverage Endorsements Coverage endorsements expand the scope of your homeowners insurance policy. You can add one of these endorsements to your policy to cover additional jewelry insurance. You can get endorsements for other scenarios, but each endorsement will increase your monthly premiums. A coverage endorsement can provide enough protection to compensate for lost or stolen jewelry. Specialty Jewelry Insurance Some homeowners insurance policies do not have enough coverage for your jewelry collection. Some people seek a standalone or specialty jewelry insurance policy to cover any gaps in their home insurance. Specialty jewelry insurance can provide additional protections and may not require a deductible. If you do not want to pay a deductible, you will likely have to pay higher premiums than a plan with a deductible. Why Home Insurance Might Not Be the Best Choice To Cover Your Fine Jewelry Home insurance can help you protect basic jewelry, but it will fall short for more expensive items. Home insurance policies don’t typically offer high enough caps or broad enough protections for fine jewelry and high-end engagement rings. Some people may not have enough money to replenish their collection if something happens. These people would benefit the most from jewelry insurance because it offers extra safeguards. The insurer will replace your jewelry instead of you footing the bill. Specialty jewelry insurance should cover loss, theft, damage, and what’s known as “mysterious disappearance.”. Homeowners insurance may not cover all these situations nor their associated costs. You also may not get a suitable replacement stone if you’re required to replace it from a preferred network specified by your homeowners insurance company. Home Insurance Rates and Deductibles Keep Going Up As home insurance policy premiums keep increasing, especially in areas where hurricanes, tornadoes, and wildfires happen, many homeowners are also facing higher deductibles just to keep premiums down. Unbundling fine jewelry insurance from a homeowners policy can make jewelry coverage more affordable, minimize or eliminate deductibles and reduce the risk of getting a home insurance policy canceled if a claim is made. Get a Quote for Your Jewelry Insurance You can continue using homeowners insurance for some jewelry coverage, but it probably won’t be enough for your fine jewelry. BriteCo offers specialty jewelry insurance policies that match your needs and concerns with replacement coverage up to 125% of the appraised value and no deductibles. You can get a free custom quote online in 60 seconds to see how much coverage for your fine jewelry will cost.

HOW MUCH DOES ENGAGEMENT RING INSURANCE COST?

Benzinga

Let’s face it. Getting engaged, finding the right engagement ring, and arranging just the right setting for your proposal are all big challenges. Probably the last thing on your mind is getting insurance for the engagement ring. When you picked up the ring at your local jeweler, it may have crossed your mind, “What if I lose this before the proposal?” In one recent research study, more than 40% of engaged couples indicated they did not get insurance coverage for their engagement rings. Why? The biggest reason given was they thought it was too expensive. A close second was that people didn’t know where or how to get insurance. About one out of ten just put it off and neglected to get coverage. How Expensive is Engagement Ring Insurance? You might be surprised at how affordable it is to insure your engagement ring, especially because it’s probably one of the biggest purchases of your life to date outside of buying a car or a house. The average spend on a diamond engagement ring in 2021 was around $7,000. The annual cost to insure that $7,000 ranges from about 0.5% to 3% of its value (only $73 to $175 per year) if you go with an insurance company that specializes in jewelry insurance. Specialty jewelry insurance is primarily replacement or repair of a jewelry item, not a cash reimbursement. Getting an agreed-value insurance policy to receive cash for a claim will almost certainly cost you more to insure. The same research study of engaged couples mentioned above rated the relative cost of jewelry insurance compared to other major purchases or ownership. Respondents revealed that health insurance is the insurance type they consider most expensive, followed by homeowners insurance and auto insurance. Jewelry insurance falls towards the lower half of the list, ranking as one of the most affordable insurance types among those who currently have it. Doesn’t Homeowners or Renters Insurance Cover an Engagement Ring? Depends. If you rely on your homeowners or renters insurance to cover personal property, you may not have full coverage for loss or damage to a ring or necklace since those insurers typically cap coverage at $1,000 up to $2,000, along with a deductible. If you file a claim for a lost $5,000 engagement ring, expect to pay between $3,000 to $4,000 out of your own pocket to replace it. Making a claim for a lost or damaged piece of jewelry also risks a future increase in your homeowners premium and in some cases can contribute to a policy cancellation. While some people can add a floater for separate coverage on their existing homeowners or renters policy, these riders are typically subject to deductibles and can be more expensive than specialty jewelry insurers. And, should you make a claim, you may be forced to get a replacement stone from the insurance company’s preferred network rather than working with your local jeweler. Does a Jewelry Warranty Cover a Lost or Damaged Engagement Ring? No. A jewelry warranty is not intended to cover the kinds of situations that specialty jewelry insurance offers. Warranties do not protect your ring for any types of loss, theft, disappearance or damage that are standard coverage with specialty jewelry insurance. How Much Does it Cost to Insure Wedding Rings? With the average cost of a woman’s wedding ring in the low thousands, it still makes sense to consider getting it insured with specialty jewelry insurance. Besides avoiding impact on making a claim through your homeowners policy, your cost could be as low as four dollars a month. One study in England found that one out of seven men lost their wedding ring in the past five years. So your odds of needing to make a claim might be higher than you initially thought. Don’t take the risk as the cost to replace your valuable jewerly is significantly higher, get an insurance quote right away to make sure you are protected. Where Can I Find Affordable Jewelry Insurance? A number of specialty jewelry insurance companies sell coverage and you have different insurance options. BriteCo jewelry and watch insurance has been evaluated by Benzinga and rated best overall value for specialty jewelry insurance with costs on the lower end ranging from 0.5% to 1.5%. And affordable doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice coverage. BriteCo policies cover up to 125% of appraised value of a jewelry item and no deductibles for standard policies. Its website lists insuring a $8,500 engagement ring in Chicago for only $4.68 a month. As an added bonus, your appraisal value for each insured item is updated every year to make sure your coverage stays current, and you don’t have to get a piece reappraised as required by some jewelry policies. The good news is you can get a no-obligation custom quote to insure engagement rings and specialty jewelry through BriteCo from your smartphone in 60 seconds or less. If you like your quote, you answer a few standard questions and can get full coverage in a matter of minutes. You will be asked to upload a photo of the insured piece from your phone and provide documentation such as an appraisal, a detailed sales receipt or a gemology lab report. That’s it. No hassle. No excuses. No worries if something happens. And total peace of mind. Contact Details Benzinga +1 877-440-9464 info@benzinga.com Company Website http://www.benzinga.com
