The IoT Insurance Observatory has continued to grow both in Europe and North America. More than 50 prestigious organizations – Insurers, Reinsurers and Tech players – have joined this think tank and contributed with their thoughts to the activities. Together with the production of the most pragmatic insights about the IoT adoption in the insurance sector (auto telematics, connected properties, connected health and life, IoT workers' compensation), the onboarding of new members is going to continue in the next months.

The Observatory
• Data provided by the Internet of Things represent an extraordinary
opportunity for Insurance Companies and intermediaries
The IoT Insurance Observatory is the first insurance think tank specialized on
the insurance IoT:
- The North American Observatory started the activity on March 2017
and have already aggregated more than 20 members
- The European Observatory (third edition) aggregated more than 30
members Insurers, Reinsurers, and Tech players
• Insurance IoT Observatory is about connecting people and ideas in
order to spread the innovation culture over the insurance market
with three concrete outcomes:
- A global multiclient research
- Three workshops delivered to each member
- Plenary symposiums

The scope of the Observatory is the Insurance IoT
Objectives
Scouting and rationalizing
qualitative/quantitative
knowledge of Insurance IoT
Sharing a critical point of view
on key trends and spreading
innovation culture
Encouraging stakeholders to
discuss experiences and to
exchange ideas about
innovation
The scope
Any insurance solution based on sensors for collecting data about the state of an insured risk
and telematics for remote transmission and management of the collected data
Health
and life
Industrial risks and
workers’ comp
Motor Home and
commercial property

7. 7
Our goal is to help members to address the
insurance IoT opportunity
IoT improves insurance profit & loss and
allows insurers to share part of this value
with the customer in order to increase
product adoption
It enhances proximity and interaction
frequency with the customer while creating
new customer experience, increasing
retention and expanding relationships
IoT approaches create and consolidate
knowledge about risks and the customer
base which will lead to the next
generation of products and services

We cover all the main insurance business lines

9. 9
We address four thematic areas
The new challenge
of insurance IoT
The impact of IoT on
risk selection and
claims
Customer relations
and engagement
Risks of insurance IoT:
privacy, data ownership,
cyber risk
• Representation of the Insurance IoT state of adoption
• Analysis of the challenges and opportunities, in place and in
perspective, of all the main business areas
• The impact of innovation:
– on selection processes
– on risk-based pricing approaches
– on loss control processes
• The connected insurance can:
– change the relationship with customers
– improve understanding between contracting parties by reducing the
mutual information asymmetries
– provide value-added services
– increase loyalty and insured empowerment in favor of more aware
and responsible behaviors and lifestyles
• Focus on the critical issues, constraints that the connected
insurance foresees in terms of :
– compliance
– information technology
– operational risks relating to managing security and confidentiality of
processed data
