See the lift derived from incremental accidents not tied to a claim

A vehicle involved in an accident has a 10% higher claim frequency than a vehicle with no prior damage.¹ As an auto insurer, the more information you have about the driver and the vehicle, the more precisely you can assess and price the risk.

More than 99% of the U.S. market contributes claims activity to LexisNexis® C.L.U.E.® Auto. But not all accidents and damage events are reported as a claim. If the vehicle owner didn’t file a claim, or was third-party to another claim, or recently purchased the vehicle, these valuable insights may be slipping under your radar.

LexisNexis® C.L.U.E.® Auto Damage 360 can help detect driver and vehicles involved in prior accidents that did not become an insurance claim. The combination of accident records from LexisNexis® Vehicle History, plus police record data on a C.L.U.E.® Auto subject and vehicle inquiry, helps provide a more comprehensive view of the risk.

To demonstrate the incremental lift yielded by leveraging supplemental, non-contributory sources of historical accident information, we analyzed 2.2 million policies, 3 million associated vehicles and 3.3 million associated drivers. The results are presented in our new report, Achieving a 360-Degree View for Predicting Auto Risk.

Key insights for auto insurance carriers

  • Identify 12% more accidents involving the driver compared to using only C.L.U.E. Auto data
  • Enhance your understanding of the vehicle by utilizing C.L.U.E. Auto vehicle search, leading to the discovery of 35% more claims
  • Uncover 25% more events related to the vehicle, highlighting prior owner damage

Missing information can lead to missed segmentation opportunities. Having a more robust, well-rounded view of the history of the driver and the vehicle can help you uncover hidden risks.
