Telematics helps insurers save lives. Our analysis supports this. The market of 17–19 year-old drivers, where telematics has the deepest penetration, is capped at around 1.1 million drivers. With close to a million policies in force today, there is very little room left to grow.
If insurers remain focused on providing telematics insurance to young-drivers, telematics will remain niche and the societal benefits will be capped. What are the next steps to support market growth and meet the demand for usage-based insurance.
