Telematics Expert to address European Conference on Reinventing Telematics and Vehicle Insurance
One of the biggest innovations in the Car Insurance Industry is the use of vehicle telematics to ensure accurate pricing of car insurance products. Through effective monitoring of driver behaviour car insurance companies are able to provide car insurance cover based on scientific data. Not only does this have an impact of car insurance premiums but can also make a significant impact on road safety and changing driver behaviour.
Ctrack is one of the leaders internationally in providing the hardware and software used for insurance telematics. We reported previously on how the expertise of Formula 1 and Ferrari designer Rory Byrne was instrumental in the design of the DQ Track system used in the Discovery Insurance offering through Discovery Insure.
Attendees of a European Conference on Insurance Telematics will now be able to gain more insights as to how this technology can be used in the battle to ensure effective, fair and affordable car insurance premiums.
Deon du Rand, Executive Director Strategic Projects of Ctrack is presenting at the international Insurance Telematics Europe 2012 conference in Londen. With Ctrack being a pioneer and leader in latest Insurance Telematics technology, including full Driver Behaviour Analysis, a number of potential clients and partners have already scheduled individual meetings with Deon and the Ctrack UK team to learn more of what Ctrack can offer the Insurance industry.
