Telematics

As the smart home gains momentum, insurers need to do three things to begin to understand the implications and opportunities.

Connected cars will solve the problem of finding parking spots, on the street and in garages, greatly reducing traffic in cities.

While insurers use telematics to price better, Verizon is offering a connected car app with services that customers really value.

While the discussion on connected cars has focused on pricing risk more accurately, telematics can also transform how claims are handled.

The arrival of a data exchange makes telematics information easily available, transforming relationships among insurers, drivers and car makers.

Insurers in Italy, where UBI has gone mainstream, offer three types of services that enhance auto policies and improve customer satisfaction.

After decades of effort, telematics and usage-based auto insurance have made modest inroads because the business model still isn't right.
