Insurers
The possibility that the cost of insurance for your vehicle depends more on how good or bad a driver you that traditional variables used by companies as the year of manufacture and mileage value is closer every day.



Several world-class insurance, with a presence in Colombia, are seizing on the progress of telematics for detailed driving habits of their customers and, based on this information, determine the risk that they can represent them to the When secure.

So, if you are driving with the speeding sites that offer little security, high traffic hours and also usually use your phone while driving, rest assured that around a couple years, it will ensure the car much more expensive if not moderate these habits.

Nicolas Delgado González, president of QBE Colombia, says that the company is already working under those parameters in Australia and is conducting pilots in Argentina and Ecuador before deploying in the country soon.

What is sought with this is to have a more logical offer insurance and the real risk associated not only to the model of car or the like, he explains.



Claims vehicles last year cost the insurance industry about 2 billion Colombian pesos, so the incorporation of this technology will help reduce the cost of claims and the value of policies to people, say insurers.

Beyond price
Although the cost of the policy will remain a critical factor, more in Colombia, where it is seen that people prefer to secure your cart before housing or even your life or your family, experts believe that this can not be the most important variable when choosing car insurance, especially amid the fierce competition companies have to innovate in benefits and assists.

But even in the selection of these added values, we must be very careful, because sometimes these can affect the price of the policy without the person noticing.

Delgado Gonzalez, QBE Insurance, said that we must try to find a balance between the cost of the policy and something that is used or not, that is, if it is a service offered by the company but does not represent a true value it is best not to take or choose one that does think may be useful.

Because the average cost of car insurance for Colombia is falling, about 600,000 pesos in the last seven years, according to estimates Fasecolda guild industry, companies have had to innovate by offering other securities to attract more customer.

In AXA Colpatria, in addition to traditional assists as driver chosen, crane if stranded, benefits and payment (damage) on site, works for accidents single transit in which the insured affects the vehicle is offer third. There he receives specialized to reconcile with the affected, among other assistance.
