Abstract Competitive dynamics of the life insurance business have pointed out that policyholder behavior is expected in the formulation of new products to suit the complex market environment. This paper focuses on the use of behavioral analytics where both clustering and association rule mining are used to identify patterns in a policyholder data set. Through these analytical approaches, the life insurers shall be able to segment customers, to identify cross-selling opportunities as well as to customize the product to a certain behavioral profile. The study uses rich policyholder data sets with policies, which are then used to classify the policyholders using K-means clustering approaches. Next, the business employs association rule mining to find frequent item sets and strong rules that manifest certain latent relationships among various policy features. The study confirms that using clustering in conjunction with association rule mining offers insights that help to improve product differentiation, marketing mix and customer loyalty. This approach not only helps in formulating the insurance solutions to the challenges but also supports strategic business decisions adding up to the competitiveness and profitability of the life insurance companies.
