The latest video in our DataForGood™ series focuses on the subject of usage-based insurance (UBI). UBI has the power to transform car insurance in a number of ways that will benefit those who drive well and are honest. By knowing exactly how people are expected to drive, insurance providers can quote for policies more accurately and help keep costs down for responsible drivers. In addition, the growing problem of insurance fraud can be greatly reduced with more accurate liability attributed in the event of an accident. It’s one of the many reasons Palantir and Sompo chose to partner with Wejo. Check out the video below.
For the next two days, Wejo will be attending CONNECT Europe, being held at the Evian Resort in France.
