“How does granularity affect motor insurance claim predictions in a telematics setting?” – Juan Sebastián Yáñez, Universitat de Barcelona
Abstract: Telematics data have tremendously impacted the development of fairer and more precise motor insurance products, such as Pay-How-You-Drive (PHYD) insurance policies. This is because telematics data’s accurate and granular nature allows insurers to dynamically estimate accident risk levels based on a client’s driving behaviour and risk exposure. However, the collection of this information significantly deviates from traditional motor insurance policies based on non-telematics covariates, which are not observed dynamically as clients drive. This paper aims to bridge the gap between classical non-telematics models and their more modern counterparts by studying various levels of granularity in telematics data sets (e.g., data collected weekly, monthly, or annually). Therefore, it provides insight into the trade-off between more granular and dynamic telematics structures, such as weekly models, and less granular structures that are more akin to classical insurance models. This study benefits from having access to telematics data from a major Spanish insurer, allowing us to investigate driving behaviors and accident patterns among 17,405 policyholders over two years (2017-2018). The dataset includes demographic and telematics variables, providing a comprehensive basis for understanding accident frequency dynamics.
“Stochastic Dominance and Financial Pricing in Peer-to-Peer Insurance” – Professor Hato Schmeiser, University of St.Gallen
Abstract: This paper studies the economic benefits of risk pooling with dependent and heterogeneous losses. We characterize peer-to-peer insurance contracts that are consistent with financial pricing in incomplete markets and a second-order stochastic dominance requirement. Then conditions under which the proposed contract design generates utility benefits for all risk-averse agents are derived. We identify necessary moment conditions on the systematic and the unsystematic risk of the losses being pooled. Moreover, we establish sufficient conditions related to the agent’s background risk. The results provide new insights into the design and benefits of risk pooling solutions that require only very limited information about the joint loss distribution and the agents’ preferences.
