Abstract

The importance of insurance aggregators will continue to increase significantly. A PwC study has shown how these providers will change the German market. From July to September 2013 motor insurers were asked to assess the aggregator market. The majority of the German motor insurance market, about 55% of the market share, took part in the PwC survey. The purpose of this survey was to contrast the myths surrounding the topic of aggregators with professionally gathered facts. It is the first systematic survey on this topic.
