FUNDAMENTALS OF THE UBI MARKET<br />

A third one is to provide paid-for value-added services to increase unitary<br />

revenues. Allianz in France, the Verein Öffentlicher Versicherer in Germany, and<br />

Uniqa in Austria have deployed such models.<br />

The fourth one is to switch to mobile and turn the offer to a reward mechanism<br />

with small and recurring wins, as we have seen with Discovery Insure.<br />

We will evaluate the effectiveness of these strategies and others in Section V.<br />

Berkshire Hathaway’s 85 year-old Chairman and CEO, Warren Buffet, said that he is<br />

The population in the US, Europe and in numerous emerging markets is ageing<br />

rapidly, and the premiums increase steadily once drivers reach the age of 60. Yet<br />
