This study aims to explore the motor insurance market’s attitude towards usage-based insurance (UBI), and thus its readiness for a launch in the near future. Data on client perception was collected using a structured questionnaire. On the basis of this, an initial selection of factors, other than income, that could influence the declared attitude of drivers was demonstrated showing that it is primarily dependent on certain demographic characteristics like their age, sex, or place of residence.
This chapter shows the possibility of introducing the usage-based insurance (UBI) for the sake of the individualisation of compulsory motor Third-Party liability insurance premiums with the aim of achieving the stability in Central and Eastern European markets and bringing them closer to the state of equilibrium. The chapter presents both the historical perspective of UBI development and the summary of the research carried out over the last decade.
The research assesses expectations regarding the amount of discount in insurance premium, which could compensate insured for loss of privacy should it transpire that one’s driving style is to be monitored. A preliminary selection of factors that may affect the expected level of discount has also been made and shows that this discount level may well depend on the views of the insured to insurance telematics and some demographic characteristics, such as gender, age or place of residence.
