Introduction

Usage-based insurance offers insurance coverage depending on the total miles a customer covers in a drive along with other driving variables including site, speed, and behavior of the driver. Moreover, UBI depends on telematics instruments for collating automotive-operating information which the insurers or insurance firms can evaluate for determining the charges of insurance policies accurately, examining claims, and restructure collisions for analyzing.

Key Growth Driving Factors

The usage-based insurance industry is impacted due to an array of factors. Let us discuss a few of them.

Connected vehicles such as connected cars have the ability to connect to usage-based insurance systems as well as drivers via smartphones, music players, and other wireless systems in possession of drivers. This will add substantially towards the growth of the usage-based insurance market in the near future.

Smartphone Packages have played a crucial role in the usage-based insurance (UBI) business landscape with drivers eager to access reports pertaining to their driving behaviour & consoles through real-time feedback. Apart from this, a transformation from UBI 1.0 to UBI 3.0 has also witnessed a paradigm shift through mobile data integration with OBDII technology. This is likely to enhance the experience of the drivers along with promoting safe driving, thereby enhancing the market progression over the coming years.

Usage-based insurance has surpassed the boundaries of the conventional insurance model along with the facilitation of driver interaction with the insurer. Through enabling of automotive insurers offering personalized touch points with policy owners, strong customer relationship between vehicle insurers & policy owners is developed. This factor has made notably influenced the growth of the usage-based insurance industry.

It has become a need of an hour to set up uniform interoperability standards across various platforms offering telematics access. Moreover, owners such as insurers as well as technology & service providers are required to set up & adhere to these standards. This will not only encompass data standards but also standards for embedded electronic & mechanical features. This will further drive the expansion of the usage-based insurance market over the forecast period.

Insurers are unfurling new opportunities for accruing profits from connected-car ecosystems. A strong connected car ecosystem involved an array of participants like vehicle manufacturers, telecom firms, insurance firms, digital platform behemoths like Amazon & Uber, and sensor & chip manufacturers. Moreover, the emergence of the ecosystem is transforming the competitive scenario for the players across the usage-based insurance sector. Furthermore, the advent of predictive modeling or AI technology has facilitated the real-time data streaming from the connected vehicles and this will alter the structure of the usage-based insurance industry along with facilitating its ascension to new growth horizons.

Some of the major industry players were early accepters of the connectivity tools and derived the benefits of being the first movers in the usage-based insurance industry. For instance, in 2008, Progressive Casualty Insurance Company, a key industry participant, had launched Snapshot -a usage-based insurance program -that offered nearly 30% discount to the drivers based on when & how well they drive their cars. Reportedly, over 3 million persons had signed for the service.

Furthermore, car telematics can enhance road safety, play a key role in enhancing driving behavior, and assign insurance premiums through usage-based insurance, thereby enlarging the scope of the car insurance industry. Car telematics also helps in gathering data from automobiles & drivers and transfer them across WANs (wide area networks).  This data will help in improving the claim-processing efficiency, influencing the driving behaviour, and reduce the insurer losses. This will prompt the growth of the usage-based insurance market over the forecast period.

Passenger Vehicle Segment To Leverage The Market Growth by 2025

In the rapidly changing landscape & scenario of the usage-based insurance industry, the passenger vehicle segment is predicted to witness huge growth along with majorly influencing the business growth over 2019-2025. The growth is attributed to a rise in the acceptance of OBD equipment and Blackbox in the passenger cars for checking the vehicle health, distance covered, and driving traits of drivers.

Latin America And The Middle East & Africa Combined To Soar Overall Market Growth By 2025

The growth of the markets in these regions over the forecast timeline is attributed to large-scale introduction of insurance telematics schemes in countries like Brazil, South Africa, and Argentina.
