Axa and Europcar discussed the future of mobility during Post webinar

Future Next Exit

The best minds in motor insurance are already grappling with how to manage the new risks that come from evolving automotive technologies – from connected and electrified vehicles to full-blown autonomous motoring.

The big changes taking place in mobility, especially in terms of urban dwellers, are also giving the sector some equally challenging headaches. Especially in such a price sensitive market like motor where customers often focus on price.

Insurance Post, in association with Europcar hosted a live interactive webinar which explored the key questions associated with this topic.

Topics covered were:

  • What solutions are the main mobility options for policyholders after an accident? How have these evolved?
  • For which customer sections – e.g: urban policyholders – is the focus more on transport – than simply a replacement car? 
  • How well equipped are insurers to offer customers a choice of mobility solution for their short term needs?
  • What short term options are available now; and what could be popular in the future? 
  • Could ‘mobility’ be the next big differentiation battle between insurers? 
  • If so would policyholders be prepared to pay for it/select an insurer-based on an alternative mobility option?

Joining us for the debate were:

  • David Williams, managing director, underwriting and technical services, Axa Insurance.
  • James Roberts, business development director - insurance, Europcar.
