Winter auto liability insurance campaign: 25% discounts on policies

Autor: Ciprian Botea 20.12.2010

The nearly 1.5 million drivers who renew their auto liability insurance (RCA) in December-January can get their premiums cut by up to 25% or can pay in instalments. Between 30 and 40% of auto liability insurance policies expire during this period.
Auto liability policies are an over 500 million-euro market, accounting for a third of the general insurance market. The value of a policy for a 1,600 cc car owned by a driver over 30 starts from around 450 RON and can exceed 600 RON, according to data supplied to ZF by insurance companies.
During the winter campaign, Generali offers an up to 25% discount on the standard price for drivers with underage children, while Allianz gives a 15% discount to all individual clients. Uniqa offers a 15% discount only to clients who also buy a mandatory home insurance policy.
In parallel, holders of BCR credit cards can pay the auto liability insurance issued by BCR Asigur`ri in six interest-free instalments. Uniqa also accepts payment of the policy in six equal interest-free instalments, but through credit cards issued by Raiffeisen Bank.
