Driver Coaching With Telematics: A Pathway to Carrier Competitive Advantage

Driver behavior monitoring systems with reporting tools and training programs are key to reducing overall risk, according to a new Aite Group report

London, UK (Nov. 6, 2018) – Insurance carriers are desperate to strike a balance between increasing customer engagement and managing downside risks and their bottom lines. This is proving to be a high-wire act, yet telematics vendors and their advanced driver monitoring systems may allow carriers to balance these objectives, given the focus on the most important part of achieving carrier goals—changing personal behaviors. Aite Group’s latest report, Driver Coaching With Telematics: A Pathway to Carrier Competitive Advantage, examines the challenging trends insurance carriers face, such as greater driver distraction, diminishing driver skills, lack of customer cooperation, and lack of real-time information.

“Carriers that incorporate new driver monitoring and evaluation systems with improved reporting tools and training programs will have a competitive advantage through better risk management, lower claims costs, and deeper customer engagement,” explains Greg Donaldson, senior analyst at Aite Group.

This new Aite Group report outlines key driver behavior monitoring systems and technologies designed to help personal lines and commercial lines insurance carriers as well as vehicle operators manage risk. It is based on interviews conducted between May and October 2018 with 24 executives at insurers and telematics system vendors across North America, Europe, Asia, and Africa.
