Basel, 4 June 2021. The Efma-Accenture Innovation in Insurance Awards ceremony on 3 June 2021 demonstrated that Baloise is one of the world's most innovative insurance companies. Baloise received the coveted accolade in two separate categories. Both Inshareance - a modular insurance product for sharing platforms - and Drive Electric - an insurance solution designed especially for chargeable hybrid and electric cars - were singled out among the 460 innovation projects that were entered in the competition. Baloise was a winner in this year's Efma-Accenture Innovation in Insurance Awards, securing first place in the category 'Product & Service Innovation' and second place in the category 'Connected Insurance & Ecosystems'. 'I am very proud that Baloise has received an Efma-Accenture award for two of its products. Innovation is an integral element of our Simply Safe strategy, through which we aim to make our customers' lives simpler and safer. Drawing on our wealth of innovation, which is based on our inhouse originality and invaluable alliances with partners, we are further developing our business model with a firm focus on our customers. These awards confirm that we are on the right track,' says Gert De Winter, CEO of the Baloise Group. Inshareance and Drive Electric: a closer look at the winning projects Drive Electric, an insurance product launched in Luxembourg at the start of 2021, secured first place for Baloise in the 'Product & Service Innovation' category. It was introduced in response to the steadily growing availability of hybrid and electric vehicles. Customers benefit from the insurance solution's guarantees, which were developed specifically for electric and chargeable hybrid cars, e.g. for the battery, charging cable and breakdown assistance. 'However, Drive Electric is more than just an insurance policy - this product enables us to support customers in their transition to an electric or plug-in hybrid vehicle by offering them high value-added services. Thanks to our partnership with Enovos and diego, we can also offer them help in the installation of a home charging station, as well as a card allowing them to charge their personal electric vehicle or plug-in hybrid at 180,000 charging stations in Europe,' says Cédric Rochet, Chief Innovation Officer at Bâloise Luxembourg.
