Korean Auto Insurers Grasp the Autonomous Nettle

South Korean insurance companies are to start to sell autonomous vehicle insurance.

Korea Bizwire said in September 2020 that South Korea’s regulator: “The Financial Supervisory Service announced that the nation’s 12 non-life insurance companies will start selling new insurance products that can cover the risk related to accidents involving commercial self-driving cars from late this month.”

Reports suggest that the country has established the legal foundation for the commercialization of Level 3 autonomous vehicles. By revising the country’s Act on Compensation for Car Damages, insurance companies will be able to sell insurance products for self-driving cars – beginning with policies for commercial self-driving cars. The website reveals that it becomes effective as of October 2020; “Following the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport’s establishment of safety standards for self-driving cars and the revision of the Act on Compensation for Car Damages.”

Banking and Financial Services: New Tech Solves GDPR

...Compliance is relatively free compared to the costs of non-compliance, but organisations may still find that they may need to invest in new technologies to enable them to comply with GDPR. Even so, the costs of investing in new technologies are relatively not that big compared to the potential costs of non-compliance. Lars Davies, CEO of Kalypton, therefore comments: “[Those] potential costs are huge, especially with Brexit. Prior to Brexit, organisations could rely on the overriding principle to enable data to move freely within the EU, even if the regulations were not fully in place, or if there were slight discrepancies in the way in which each member state enforced the rules. Now, the UK will have to implement the GDPR in full and, more importantly, enforce it in full if the EU is to recognise the UK’s regime as equivalent to that of the EU...”

Risks May Differ But Don’t Go Away for Driverless Insurance

Challenges for insurers devising policy plans for ADAS and autonomous explored by Graham Jarvis.

By reputation the insurance industry is often seen as a slow-moving beast but research suggests that their pace is changing. It seems that insurers are keenly embracing new technologies, such as advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), and they are taking steps to prepare themselves for an autonomous vehicle future. Nevertheless, there is still the feeling that the rapid advances in autonomous vehicle technologies have taken some industries by surprise, including insurers, because there will be a need to create some radically different parameters from the very well established insurance model.

Legislators around the world are having to address the changes the rapid advances in autonomous vehicle technologies are creating. This includes finding a legislative way to answer the liability question of who’s responsible when an accident occurs when the traditional human driver is no longer in control of the car.
