New white paper : ROI Evaluation for Insurance Companies with SafetyNex

New Nexyad paper :

Real time App for onboard driving risk assessment SafetyNex used by Insurance Companies
(onboard telematics with smartphone for car insurance)
Evaluation of return on investment (ROI)
INTRODUCTION
European and American car Insurance Companies are all currently testing onboard telematics systems (on professional electronics devices or on Smartphones), in order to study new opportunities provided by digital technologies in the evolution of their business and business models [1].
We also can see now some experiments in Asia. Indeed, digitization of the economy has an impact on insurance industry too, as new competitors such as GAFAMs (Google, Amazon, Facebook, Apple, Microsoft) come to their car insurance market with new approaches, always ready to capture value.
The main idea behind testing telematics is that it would be nice to adjust at best pricing of insurance depending on the driver. Onboard telematics is expected to « measure » usage (kind of road, day/night, number of km, et …) and to estimate risk taken by the driver.

SMARTPHONE APP SafetyNex COULD REDUCE ACCIDENT RATE BY 20%

I – ONBOARD TELEMATICS AND AUTO INSURANCE : REMINDER

Onboard telematics now can measure behavior of a driver, and therefore, car insurers have early started this adventure of connected car, more or less successfully.

The simplest applications that have been deployed are:
. locate stolen vehicles
. measure the usage of the driver, and in particular the number of kilometers traveled in order to propose adaptive pricing (vehicle that always stays in a garage will never have an accident!)

But the main business of the insurer deals with the concept of risk, and then, we have seen a lot of telematics firms proposing automatic detection of risky behaviors. The most common is the so-called detection of « severe braking », which is based on the assumption that severe braking reveals a lack of anticipation, and thereby a dangerous driving. We now know that this assumption is totally false [1], but it is still in the mind of some insurers that « want to believe » there is a simple way to classify human beings behaviours. However, the lack of results of these deployments has led some German and US insurers to abandon Telematics [2].

LE NOMBRE D’ACCIDENTS DE LA ROUTE

I – TELEMATIQUE EMBARQUEE ET ASSURANCE AUTOMOBILE : RAPPELS

La télématique embarquée permet de mesurer en situation le comportement d’un conducteur, et de ce fait, les assureurs auto se sont assez tôt lancés dans l’aventure, avec, il faut le dire, plus ou moins de succès.

Les applications les plus simples qui ont été déployées sont :
. localiser les véhicules volés
. mesurer les usages du conducteur, et en particulier le nombre de km parcourus pour proposer des tarifs au km (un véhicule qui ne roule jamais n’aura jamais d’accident !)

Mais le métier principal de l’assureur tourne autour de la notion de risque, et assez vite, on a vu des tentatives de détection automatique des comportements à risque. Le plus répandu est la détection des « freinages sévères », qui s’appuie sur l’hypothèse selon laquelle un freinage sévère révèle un manque d’anticipation, et par là-même une conduite dangereuse. Nous savons maintenant que cette hypothèse est totalement fausse [1], mais elle est encore présente à l’esprit de pas mal d’assureurs.

Le manque de résultats de ces déploiements a d’ailleurs conduit des assureurs allemands et américains à abandonner la télématique [2].

App SafetyNex pour les assureurs

SafetyNex pour les compagnies d’assurance

. SafetyNex est une App Smartphone qui se vit par les conducteurs comme étant un véritable copilote digital : alerte en amont d’une difficulté dès lors que la vitesse excessive du véhicule montre clairement que le conducteur n’a pas identifié le danger. SafetyNex remonte périodiquement aux assureurs des profils d’usages et de risque.

. Les utilisations prévues de SafetyNex par les compagnies d’assurance sont :

– Augmentation de la marge opérationnelle de l’assureur : SafetyNex peut permettre d’éviter 20% des accidents de la route d’après les études publiées en Grande Bretagne et aux USA. Si la compagnie d’assurance déploie SafetyNex à primes constantes : elle offre à ses assurés, un outil perçu comme utile, et elle baisse l’accidentologie de 20%. Par ailleurs, les accidents non évités arrivant statistiquement moins vite (puisque le conducteur est prévenu en amont, il a le temps de ralentir), la sinistralité est plus faible. Cela s’applique à l’ensemble des conducteurs, y compris les jeunes conducteurs qui coûtent cher aux assureurs. Cet effet sur la marge ne demande aucun travail particulier à l’assureur.

– Pay as you drive : les usages sont tracés (km parcourus, tranches horaires, type d’infra Ville/Route/Autoroute, etc…) ce qui permet de proposer des tarifs à l’utilisation.

– Pay how you drive : le risque pris par le conducteur est mesuré, et permet à l’assureur d’ajuster ses segmentations de clientèles et ses tarifs s’il veut proposer des tarifs modulés par le risque.

– Prime écologique : SafetyNex intègre en option un système de calcul de l’éco-conduite qui est inversement proportionnel à la brutalité de la conduite.

– Prévention : les profils de risque peuvent être croisés avec des causes de risque (vitesse inadaptée en virage, sur croisement, sur zones piétonnes, etc…) si bien qu’il est possible de proposer des sensibilisations, stages, et formations ciblés sur une population.

– Silver coaching : le suivi des risques dans le temps peut permettre de déceler une baisse d’aptitude à la conduite chez les séniors. Dans ce cas, l’assureur peut intervenir pour aider son client à baisser son risque tout en restant conducteur le plus longtemps possible.

– Assistance : en cas de choc sévère, le smartphone propose un « gros bouton » OK permettant d’appeler en un clic un numéro de téléphone préenregistré par l’App.

NB : SafetyNex s’inscrit parfaitement dans les évolutions du métier de l’assureur, telles que présentées dans les publications de synthèse des cabinets de Consulting de renommée mondiale (Accenture, BCG, Deloitte, KPMG, McKinsey, etc …)

SafetyNex ne remonte AUCUNE donnée brute et/ou indiscrète (compatibilité CNIL à 100%). Toutes les données brutes, nécessaires aux calculs, sont utilisées DANS le smartphone (calculs sur le microprocesseur du smartphone) et non stockées.

SafetyNex a été validé sur 50 millions de km.

Les données remontées dans le cloud sont des histogrammes (profils) et tous les croisements des variables :
. usages : km parcourus, ville/route/autoroute, tranches horaires, zone géographique (département)
. risque (histogrammes et grandes catégories de risques)
. note éco (en option)

SafetyNex for Insurance Companies

SafetyNex for insurance companies

. SafetyNex is a Smartphone road safety App that works like a true digital co-pilot : warning the driver when approaching a dangerous area, once the excessive speed of the vehicle clearly shows that the driver did not notice the danger. SafetyNex records for insurers profiles of risk and usage.

. Insurance Companies can use SafetyNex for several purposes :

– Increase operating margin of the insurer
SafetyNex can prevent 20% of road accidents according studies published in Great Britain and the USA. If the insurance company deploys SafetyNex with no premiums change : it offers a tool to its policyholders perceived as useful, and it decreases the accident of 20%. Moreover, accidents that may not be avoided come statistically slower (because the driver is warned and has time to slow down), the loss ratio is lower. This applies to all drivers, including young drivers that are costly to insurers.

– Pay as you drive: usages are plotted (km traveled, type of infra City / Highway / Highway, time slots, etc …) allowing to offer per-use rates.

– Pay how you drive: the risk taken by the driver is measured, and allows the insurer to adjust its client segmentation and its prices if it wants to offer rates modulated by the risk.

– Ecological bonus: SafetyNex incorporates an optional eco-driving scoring system that is inversely proportional to the brutality of driving.

– Prevention: the risk profiles can be crossed with class of risk (inappropriate speed cornering, on crossing over pedestrian zones, etc …) so it is possible to provide sensitization, courses, and targeted training on a population.

– Silver coaching: risk monitoring among time may help to detect a decline in driving ability for seniors. In such a case, the insurer may act to help its customers to lower their risk while staying as long as possible a driver.

– Support: in severe crash, the smartphone pops up a “big OK button” for calling in one click a phone number prerecorded by the App.

NB: SafetyNex fits perfectly with deep changes in the car insurance business, as presented in publications of Major Consulting Groups (Accenture, BCG, Deloitte, KPMG, McKinsey, etc …)

SafetyNex doesn’ record any raw data and / or intrusive data (100% CNIL and privacy protection compatibility). All raw data required for risk assessment are used INSIDE the smartphone (computing on the microprocessor of the smartphone) and those raw data are not recorded.

SafetyNex was validated on 50 million km.

Data recorded in the cloud are histograms (profiles) and all crossings of variables:
. usage : kilometers traveled, city / highway / motorway, time slots, geographical area (department)
. risk (histograms and broad risk categories)
. Eco rating (optional)

Here are papers of NEXYAD:

1 – Role of the insurer
The insurance idea would have appeared on the occasion of the first great journey by boat, and the appearance of “modern” insurance is generally dated from the 19th century.
The principle of insurance is easy to understand : if accidents are rare (compared to the number of occurrences – travel, car trips, etc.), a simple and prudent idea then is to “put aside” a certain amount of money for each occurrence (which on average does not lead to an accident) and to use the money to repay the cost of the claim in case (rare) of accident.
One could imagine that individuals manage themselves each a “pot” of this type. Of course, even if an accident is rare, you never know when it happens and it may happen at any beginning of the process so that the pot is almost empty.
We could then easily make a common pot between several people, to smooth it : if three people make a common pot, it is unlikely that the three have an accident while starting hoarding. But… it is anyway possible. Although if the pot is conceived with hundreds of thousands of people there, you secure the problem of “instant” of the accident. This is the « law of large numbers », which allows a deterministic modeling of chance : the odds. It remains to define the amount of money to set aside each month for example (or each travel).
To handle this (a pot shared by hundreds of thousands of contributors, the estimated sum to put aside, etc…), it is obvious that it is necessary to have qualified personnel, sufficient… and finally, it happens naturally to the idea of the Insurance Company.

1 – Rôle de l’assureur

L’idée d’assurance serait apparue à l’occasion des premiers grands voyages maritimes, et l’apparition
« moderne » de l’assurance est généralement datée du 19ème siècle.
Le principe de l’assurance est le suivant : si les accidents sont rares (comparativement au nombre
d’occurrences : de voyages, de trajets automobile, etc.), une idée simple et prudente consiste alors à « mettre de côté » une certaine somme pour chaque occurrence (qui en moyenne ne conduit pas à un accident) de manière à utiliser cette somme pour rembourser le coût du sinistre en cas (rare) d’accident.
On pourrait imaginer que les particuliers gèrent eux-mêmes chacun une « cagnotte » de ce type. Bien sûr, même si un accident est rare, on ne sait jamais quand il arrive et il se peut qu’il arrive au tout début du processus si bien que la cagnotte est presque vide.
On peut alors facilement faire une cagnotte commune entre plusieurs personnes, pour lisser ce problème : si trois personnes font une cagnotte commune, il est peu probable que les trois
aient un accident au tout départ de la thésaurisation. Mais … c’est quand-même possible. On conçoit bien que si l’on construit la cagnotte avec plusieurs centaines de milliers de personnes, là
on a sécurisé le problème du « moment » de l’accident. C’est la loi des grands nombres qui permet d’utiliser une modélisation déterministe du hasard : les probabilités. Reste à définir le montant de la somme à mettre de côté, chaque mois par exemple (ou à chaque trajet).
