Commercial vehicles: - couriers and postal services; - motor trade; - operating lease fleets; - own account haulage; - removal firms; - road haulage; - van and lorry hire firms; - other fleets. The report also identifies affinity schemes and commercial partnerships for motor insurance, road assistance and GAP insurance in the UK set up between trade associations, leasing companies, leasing brokers, fleet management companies, and vehicle hire companies with providers of these policies. In addition, it highlights other key underwriters and brokers in this market and discusses key issues such as the use of telematics for insurance and assistance. All these features make this report the most comprehensive analysis of fleet insurance and assistance in the UK ever produced.
