South Korean digital insurance carrier Carrot has entered an alliance with Indonesia’s Lippo General Insurance (LGI) to develop a behaviour-based insurance (BBI) solution.
This collaboration is set to use Carrot’s technological and data analytics capabilities to introduce insurance products in the Indonesian market.
LGI, a non-life insurance provider, offers a range of products including health, property, motor vehicle, transport and personal accident insurance.
Carrot said its partnership with LGI offers the potential for new revenue streams beyond traditional underwriting income as it explores opportunities in other South East Asian markets.
Established in 2019, Carrot offers pay-per-mile auto insurance that calculates premiums based on actual driving distance, tracked by its proprietary IT device.
The company also rewards safe driving through its members-auto service, which utilises advanced analytics to evaluate driving habits.
