Create a comprehensive short term car insurance

Objective:

Support the profitable growth of the Motorhull LoB by answering needs for specific short-term car usages.

Create a short term (between 1-28 days) car insurance policy, that can be used for borrowing another car or van, or adding a temporary additional driver to your car, letting someone else driving  your vehicle. Ex : Arrange cover for a test drive, sharing a long drive with a friend, or borrowing a relative’s vehicle for a weekend or holidays.

 

The project

It should be conducted by one or several entities interested for their country.

 

Investigation phase :

  • Benchmark from UK (or any other country) about existing products. UK Insurer Information:
    • Rating :
      • Cover option 1-28 day policies
      • Patterns on 1-2 days, 1 week, 2 weeks or 4 weeks short term insurance
      • Average policy length is just under 1 week due to the majority is 1-2 day policies
      • Longer the short term policy, better performance (a factor could be the usage is spread or experience is gained over the length of the policy)
      • Sophistication in the rating has evolved, with NCB rating excluded, postcode district is more advanced than some standard car products
      • Pricing model is scalable based on predicated usage. 1 days usage could be high (compared to one day usage of someone on an annual car policy), so this is reflected in the premium. An average one day policy annualised will be circa £2000-£3000 in premium
    • Risk Selection:
      • Fraud is the main area to focus on as 100% of the policies are purchased online
      • Fraud indicators need developing and reviewed constantly
      • Validation tools such as Experian and MyLicence are used
      • Sensible acceptance criteria from launch with refinement using claims data
    • Product Add-ons.
    • Sales approach:
      • how it is used by brokers and car dealerships.
      • Online Sales (Example of Aviva).
    • Experience of Carole Nash in UK with Harley Davidson.
  • Investigate the Market size/potential UK = approximately £50 million GWP and 1.7 mio policies / year

Product development phase and Launching :

to be conducted in one or with several Groupama entities

Technical and actuarial inputs: Rating and risk selection seems to be an important issue.

Importance of share of  experience after the analysis / testings that would be done in one entity.


Main KPI’s :

  • GWP and technical profit of this product
  • Online sales?

 

Main advantages:

  • Differentiation through innovation / support to the Brand.
  • Potential for partnerships (in automotive sector but not only !)
  • Boost for our portfolio development.

Santino Safety System: a device to stop messages and social activity when you are driving

What's the concrete proposal?

Data tell us that the distraction - due to the use of smartphone- is the main cause of car accidents.

How can we help to prevent this probem?

We decided to launch a "Don’t text and drive campaign" linked with a specific safety system device, which stops the notification of all messages and moreover it sends an automatic answer.

In this way, we have proposed not only a social responsibility message but also a concrete solution!

How the pilot country chosen for this action proceed with it (the broad lines of course)

Our goal is to convince people - in particular young people - to use this device.

In which way? 

Trough a viral spot. We did a long brainstorming with our advertising agency and the result has been an interesting creative idea, inspired by a typical Italian tradition: the use of small objects (religious or not religious, such as saints, lucky charms, little pins) into the car as a protection against accidents.

So we realized a video, with an ironic tone of voice, that communicates the following message: Italians have always turned to Santini (religious pictures/icons) to feel safe while driving, but today there is a new danger and Santino Safety System is The first technological Santino for your car that protects you from distractions due to notifications on your smartphones .

In the same time, we transformed our chip in a pin with a emoticon face that represents a little saint. So this small object is contemporary, modern, nice, aligned with social media culture.

How it works?

The operation is simple: the users can request "Santino Safety System" for free through Groupama Web Site or Mobile Application and put it into the car. The device Santino Safety System works with a mobile application through NFC technology and it protects you by blocking your incoming messages and notifying your friends that you are driving.

Benefits

Thanks to this viral video, our "Santino safety System" has become a fenomeno on the web, whit more than 10 millions of views in just 2 weeks and we have received more than 20.000 request for this device.

So benefits are a lot. First of all the awareness: Italian and international press dedicated big attention on this campaign (we collected about 100 articles on technology pages and cultural pages ). Secondly the lead acquisition: we collected more than 20.000 mail addresses and mobile numbers.

Next steps

Italian subsidiary is going to valutate how to continue the project next year.

Focus are: to develop the application for IOS System too, to create traffic in agencies, to connect the safety system to an insurance product...

Issue

in order to export this innovation in other countries it’s important to find the way to convince people to use it.

I think that Italian subsidiary has found a amazing idea, inspired by local traditions, but probably cultural aspects are different in different countries. So the first challenge is to transform the chip in a cool object, that guys want to have in their cars.

MyFamily Products: European Products & Shared Services System

The project aims at creating simple products, shared between or offered in all of those countries, where the Group has activity, with a centralized service platform.

At the same time, it will offer Groupama an opportunity to make cross-selling within the family members.

  • First stage
    • It would be an "European" range of products, using the possibility of cross boarder services, but accessible for not EU members too.
    • By our idea we can start with more simple products, and supporting tools of services
    • This will have direct impact on cooperation, new business, business lines, sales channels.
    • In 2-3 years the Groupama could have more international image.
  • Second Stage
    • Possibility to enter into those countries, where today we don’t have activity and the Group doesn’t plan to enter.
    • Creation of Shared service Centers

Which products?

  • First step: simple products and internationally standardised: accident, travel, PPI insurances.
  • Different scope : provide to a commercial clients in one country the same product in an other country, where the client have activity. It is commercial insurance, different philosophy.

What to be shared?

Start with GTC, technical specifications, pricing and e-mail of person in charge. Possibly extend to description of supporting processes like risk selection, claims management.

Sales channels included:

Existing channels, internet brokers, own website, call centers, bank partners.

Services:

Based on our own centralised services rethinking contracts with assistance companies.

To be decided:

GSA product with cross boarder services, supported by local companies or Supported by GSA, but local products

5
Pairing on Operational Dashboards

The project aims at improving our operational dashboards trough exchanges between 2 entities, which would compare their existing dashboards & KPIs (underwriting, claims management, reserving, network management, IT developments, marketing actions, etc.) with the target to enrich both of them and therefore to improve operational efficiency and capacity.

At the same time, each entity will discover more about the local practice of the other market and therefore it might bring new ideas for his own market.

Financial KPIs would not be part of the project.

Benefits

Because operational metrics and KPI's will be exchanged between the subsidiaries, the experience of companies with different experiences and business models will be capitalized, in order to obtain an inside view on how other companies can manage and evaluate the effectiveness of their operations.

A basis for comparing each company’s efficiency will be possible, based on a per comparison for questions like, how much time it takes to issue a life policy without underwriting or how many FTE’s are needed to pay a packaged household fire claim in company XX in comparison to company ZZ.

Approach

Assuming that each Affiliate has its own dash boards, the International Division should put in place a base line inventory of operational dashboards / KPI’s compiled throughout the international affiliates.

Each affiliate should identify and contribute operational dashboards / KPI’s that are in place to measure operational performance or the accomplished action-plans /programs.

Subsequently, the Internal Division should identify which KPI’s could be paired per line of business among Affiliates.

SII Capital requirement mindset in Business development

What is it?

Solvency II is a Directive in European Union law that codifies and harmonises the EU insurance regulation. Primarily this concerns the amount of capital that EU insurance companies must hold in order to reduce the risk of insolvency.

Each regulator in every EU country has identified Insurers capital needs to support their risks. Thus, business plans and new product launches are now, more than ever, incorporated in capital decisions.

Idea

It can be surprising how little we know about how much capital is required to support different types of products. The idea is to develop a simple groupwide model adapting the existing Solvency II group calculation model by using the knowledge and experience of some experts across the Groupama. This should be at the forefront of our planning and not just as a quarterly calculation sent to the regulator. Those calculations should be used also for:

  • New product initiatives
  • Budgeting / PSO
  • Capital investment/requests by Individual Countries and Groupama International

Solvency II calculations should not just be seen as a compliance issue but also as a real predictive and decision taken tool for business development in order to help identifying risks in our organizations. For example, this could help us identifying earlier the risks taken when we develop products. If the model identifies such a product, we can ask then the question whether the risks and returns of that product are fully understood and acceptable. The goal is to find a balance between business development, risks and capital requirement.

Outcome

The harmonization of approach to modelling solvency requirements will help the Group

  • Improve decision taking
  • Identify key risk exposure by country and region
  • Bring Finance, Risk/Compliance and Marketing close together
  • Improve budgeting / PSO / business simulations
  • Developed strong internal model will demonstrate to regulators that we understand our business and potentially reduce the Group’s Solvency requirements.
  • Harmonization of approach will better help the Group to contrast/compare risks by country and by product
  • Crossing ideas can reduce costs and improve profitability
  • Improve knowledge and training on Solvency II

What are the first steps to implement that?

Who

What

Creation of a Digital Competency & Knowledge Center

The idea is:

  • to have a set of competences and knowledges available to the International Perimeter which must be adapted to the change in the technologies and in the marketplace.
  • To create a pool of digital experts from all entities, available to the whole perimeter upon request, with virtual training center and access to external experts on specific projects.

This center would allow us to centralize information and research data in order to avoid starting projects from scratch.

A common platform would be necessary and a knowledge “librarian” (and community manager) could be in charge of maintaining and updating the information.

Expected benefits:

  • Increase the Group capacity for innovation;
  • Start projects from a consolidated base and not suffering from the “re-invent the wheel” syndrome;
  • Access and share a bigger international talent pool and documentation about the projects implemented in different countries;
  • Create the right environment which will attract IT specialist in terms of working; conditions and opportunities for learning and advancing including international career pathway;
  • Increase our people engagement by giving them international exposure as well as possibilities of being involved in different types of projects (which counts a lot especially for the millennials);
  • save on time and external costs;
  • Save on mutualization of expert salaries;

What is the profile / map of experts?

  • They should be Groupama employees in International subsidiaries;
  • Mandatory English speakers;
  • To have clear categories, for each type of activity, core or support- for ex:
    • IT: digital experts, developpers, applications, dba, etc.
    • BPM : Lean and Six Sigma expert (with “belt” certification)
    • Project Management
    • Product + tariff
    • Change ambassadors (e.g. sales people, end users which promote the adoption within the organization)
  • The only criteria is to be key resource in relevant projects implemented in subsidiary (e.g. Mobility Solution in Romania, Cheetah platform in Greece, home insurance with connected objects in Romania and Italy….)
  • The experts should be nominated by the Sponsor or PM of the project;
  • Each person should describe the role they have in the project

 What else should be on the platform?

  • The platform should have 2 types of users:
    • Experts – which cannot sign in themselves, they are invited;
    • Other users which are “in search “ of documents, experts, etc;
  • Besides the experts + users, there should be a list of projects, finalized and ongoing, which are considered strategic, innovative, with potential international impact and deployment, posted by every Groupama branch.

 How should we implement the idea?

  • Deployment could be achieved using Share N Go platform, by collecting from each subsidiary for example the top 5 projects and expertise (we could also have a pilot using the GIIC projects) and offering for each subject some man-days of expertise to the others for booking
  • Area of e-learning for:
    • Creating online courses giving the possibilities for the experts to subscribe to them;
    • Electronic library per community – articles, books, etc;
  • News area where can be seen the latest projects/developments in other Groupama branches;

How can you use the experts?

  • An expert can be contacted via email or platform to arrange call conf/video calls, request more information about the topic, arrange visits in the respective country;

 Who should animate and steer it?

  • Animation and administration should be done by the international division;
  • Steering should be done by a “board” with representatives from each branch (CIOs and a person from business mandated by each CEO) which should have the following responsibilities:

KPIS

  • No of projects available on platform
  • No of people/experts available
  • No of projects replicated in other countries
  • Level of engagement of experts
  • Level of cost avoidance financial or mandays

Next steps

  • Set up a project team
  • Align with the Int Div which will administrate the platform
  • Identify the experts
  • Create a group on Share Go

Common World Wide employer branding

Develop a common worldwide employer brand for Groupama

“Groupama - an employer of choice”

The idea

Develop a common appearance and presence to the Groupama employer brand, in order to build a common power at an international level as an employer of choice.

Create a clear and common picture of Groupama (both internally and externally) as an employer of choice, in order to improve attraction, retention and engagement of talented employees. 

How could we implement the idea?

  • Creation of a strong brand awareness. Establishment of an international common brand identity. Our brand identity is the representation of your company's reputation through attributes, values, purpose, strengths, and passions that identifies our services and products as distinct from those of other competitors.
  • Identify the key messages and employer brand values that we want to promote – determine our employee value proposition. “Translation” of our corporate values to the new digital era e.g. proximity = proximity to our clients through digital tools and apps.
  • Develop common imagery and marketing material to have a common “look and feel”
  • See what’s currently done in France and align to it – use best practices within the Group
  • Share practices and develop common practices for internet/social media presence of Groupama as an employer
  • Aim for a “best place to work” award – in order to measure our progress with common KPIs, promote our employer brand, and help us target improvement areas
  • Share internal success stories
  • Empower employees to become ambassadors of the Groupama employer brand through their own social media presence
  • Work with sponsors on a global scale (eg sports or community sponsorships)

We could take this idea further by :

  • Developing common HR strategy/policies, not just employer brand marketing
  • Selecting common KPIs to measure and improve HR processes (training, recruiting…)
    • for greater efficiency (cost per hire/time to hire/retention %/referral %/engagement %)
    • for good mirror and development of HR activities and processes (hiring manager satisfaction/new joiners survey)
    • for building a higher level of employer brand in order to attract the higher level candidates (quality & diversity of talent pool/first year attrition rate/first year performance rating)

 

Why is this action potentially transversal and how should it be deployed?

Employer branding refers to the expression of a company’s unique attributes (point of differentiation).  Especially from HR point of view, there are benefits that are applicable to both prospective and current employees.  While our branding influences a consumer’s decision to make purchases of our products, the employer brand for the human resources, is the composite of various economic, psychological and functional aspects that impact a professional’s desire to work for a particular organization.

All the international subsidiaries are competing to recruit talented employees in highly competitive labor markets, where attracting the right person with the right skills and attitudes is not easy. 

Engagement levels of existing employees within the international perimeter is already high (81% vs 73% in France) but we need to retain our key talents, and they need to feel proud of the organization they work for.

This project can be transversal across the international perimeter, but also between International and France.  In France, there is a common approach to employer branding at a national level, with communication campaigns that are aligned to the strategy, values and brand image of Groupama in France (proximity, responsibility, confidence).  This project has the potential to become transversal across the whole Group.

How will this action have the stronger impact (value /potential growth)?

Benefits for the companies will be:

  1. Enhanced external brand reputation
    • For clients
    • For current & prospective employees
  2. Larger, more accessible pool of talented, interested candidates
  3. Increased employee passion, engagement & productivity
  4. Better retention rates, lower recruitment expenses
  5. Improved efficiency of the HR function
  6. Attract new talent from the market (from different sectors) in order to effectively bring in new perspectives and fresh & innovative ideas.

Simplification and improvement of customer processes

Measurement

  • Running time of E2E processes and sub-processes of customer services
  • KPI and SLA monitoring
  • Distinction of active operation and idle time in process phases (idle time: time of waiting for customer’s response or completion of document/data)
  • Measurement of customer satisfaction, expectation

Benchmarking analysis

  • Comparison of other relevant sector competitors and their practise
  • Taking into consideration of applying other methods used by competitors

Process mapping AS - IS

  • Examine complexity of processes

  • Finding critical points of services

Set up project team and determine applicable methods of project operation

Applying different method elements

  • Agile: close cooperation of IT developers, business field experts and end users, beside iterative and continuous reconciliation and collaboration
  • LEAN: identify the non-effective and non-value added processes from client perspective

Process specification TO - BE

  • Mapping different alternatives and preparing business case arguments (along the focus points of the customer journey (Taking out a new policy- Billing, premium collection- Info supply, regular follow ups-Policy handling-Claim-Complaint-Cancellation) )
  • Naming decision points and making proposals
  • Specification of target numbers, KPI-s and SLA-s
  • Identification of quick wins and significant IT developments and prioritizing them
  • Making IT specifications

Key messages

Advantages of implementation at group level

  • Best practise can be shared between group members
  • Enable comparison of service procession time, costs, KPI-s, SLA-s, what can stimulate the competition between group members
  • Transparency of processes
  • More effective, optimized and simplified customer services
  • Standardized operation in the group regarding customer service processes
  • Growing customer satisfaction

Should be investigated for implementation

Common anti-fraud tools and policies across Groupama

1 - Global vision of the Proposal:

Fraud is a growing problem, particularly in the fields of motor and P&C, and fighting fraud has considerable cost and profit potential for insurers.  Insurance Europe estimates that the total from all cases of fraud – both detected and undetected – amounts to 10 percent of overall claims expenditure in Europe. In France the P&C frauds weight 15% of paid claims. It is expected to become more important for our Group as the general economic conditions of related subsdiaries become more fragile againts risks on political and economic development.

 

Current position of the Groupama

  • The Groupama Fraud Taskforce has been active since 2013.
  • The transversal mission by the International Direction was performed in 2014 and a report and action/recommendations for each country developed.
  • A group reporting composed of several KPIs was created and shared with fraud correspondant of each subsidiary.
  • Yearly External Fraud Workshop are organized to exhange best practices related to fraud.

 Proposal

 To support this strategical competence across the Group, the awereness should be increased and priority should be given on the management level of each subsidiaries in addition to important current efforts by the Fraud Taskforce.

  • To update all international subsidiaries on the executive management level on the work undertaken to date by the Groupama Fraud Taskforce, identifying best practises and current gaps.
    • Synthesis learnings to date fromGroup Fraud Taskforce
    • Share the tender details for anti-fraud tool in process
    • Develop proposals regarding the most effective ways to increase awareness and engagement with the subsidiaries on yearly oganized fraud workhops 
  • Based on the works until now, “Group Technical Competency Standarts on Anti-Fraud” should be set and the competency level of each subsidiary should be announced according to gaps.
    • To set the minimum technical competency development criterias as
                              *) Excellence *) Effective *) Needs improvement,
    • To assess and make make the gap analysis of each subsiadiries,
    • To announce the competency level of each subsidiary,
    • To develop action plans based on these gap analysis.
    • To set minimum “effective” level as competency target for each subsidiary.

 

Proposals regarding the criterias for such competency:

  • Anti-Fraud Policy and General organization
  • Definition,
  • General organization,
  • Strategy & Policy,
  • External Fraud Inventory,
  • Vendor (outsource investigators) Selection & Performance management
