13 Fraud control: Insurers save 270,000 euros per day by conducting fraud investigations Diagram 1. Number of fraud investigations in 2013 and 2014 Diagram 2. Number of fraud investigations in 2014, divided by acceptance and claim million saved 99 million saved Number of fraud investigations Number of fixed frauds Fraud control. Sounds like a noble plan, but does it bear fruit? Data from 2014 shows that fraud investigations are becoming more effective. In 2014 insurers launched fewer investigations into fraud than in 2013 but detected a higher percentage of fraud cases. Moreover, these fraud investigations saved more money. Effective fraud investigations saved a total amount of 98.8 million euros, which is 270,000 euros a day. Claims represent approximately 60 per cent of fraud cases. However, acceptance accounts for relatively more cases of detected fraud. Source: Dutch Association of Insurers 13

16 Diagram 3 Total premium volume per capita, in thousands The Netherlands: the most insured people in the world? The Netherlands is the most insured people in the world, isn't it? This rhetorical question pops up every now and then, but the answer is not automatically 'yes'. Yes, it is true that, looking at the average premium turnover per citizen, the Netherlands is high up on international lists (see also Diagram 3). However, the total amount also includes the premiums for medical expenses. Many other countries recover medical expenses in a different manner, through the tax system, for example. Switzerland Netherlands Denmark Finland Luxembourg United Kingdom Norway Sweden France Belgium Germany Italy Austria Portugal Spain Slovenia Cyprus Malta Czech Republic Slovakia Poland Greece Croatia Hungary Estonia Latvia Bulgaria Turkey Romania

17 If we were to filter out (see Diagram 4) the healthcare premium, which would only be fair, the Netherlands would end up in the middle bracket with regard premium volume per citizen. The premium volume is the sum total of insurance premiums that individuals, households, institutions and companies have paid in any one year.

The mean of the claim standard equals 100 per cent. This allows us to determine which types of claims score notably higher or lower than other types of claims within a certain age group. The results were assessed per 1,000 policyholders to eliminate differences in the population in each age group. 30

Distribution of notifications of claims from private households on 28/07/2014 Monday, 28 July 2014 was the day on which the most notifications of claims from private households were recorded. See Top 15 of claim days in (diagram 9, p. 36). There was extremely heavy precipitation on this day. Figure 1 shows the amount of precipitation recorded on 28 July. Figure 2 represents the distribution of the number of notifications of private buildings insurance claims on this day, showing a strong correlation with the amount of precipitation. The province of Brabant was also hit by a great deal of precipitation, but that was early in the morning. Consequently, the precipitation on 28 July is divided between two measurements: one on 28 July and one on the next day. Source: KNMI, Dutch Association of Insurers. 47

54 KNMI 14 scenarios computed: significant increase in damage caused by climate change As a result of climate change, the cost of private household insurance claims is increasing. If no measures are taken, the damage caused by (extreme) hail showers is expected to double. In the worst-case climate scenario, the damage caused by precipitation could increase by no less than 139 per cent. Insurers are concerned about increasing risks among their clients and promote prevention to limit the damage. In addition to precipitation and storm damage, a large part of the damage is caused by fire, theft or water as result of leaking pipes or devices (see diagram 10). According to the KNMI'14 scenarios, changes in the climate only affect damage caused by rain, extreme rain, hail and extreme hail. This means that the total amount of damage increases considerably less than the damage caused by precipitation, i.e. a maximum of 14%. Increase in the total precipitation damage and the total cost of private household insurance claims in the four KNMI 14 scenarios in 2085 Moderate temperature rise High temperature rise Change in air current pattern Low Change in air current pattern High Change in air current pattern Low Change in air current pattern High Increase in total amount of precipitation damage Min 5% 5% 13% 23% Max 43% 46% 109% 139% Total damage Min 2% 2% 4% 5% Max 5% 5% 12% 14% 54
