07/10/2006: Unigard introduces FlexAuto program in Washington

Unigard Insurance Group is pleased to introduce a new and improved way to write auto insurance business. FlexAutoSM, Unigard’s easy to use and innovative auto insurance program, is now available to independent agents in Washington.

 

FlexAuto features Precise PricingSM, a rating process guaranteed to provide more competitive pricing for a broader range of risks. With FlexAuto, Unigard provides agents direct access to its policy rating process. Unigard agents in Idaho, Utah, Oregon and Arizona are already using FlexAuto and recently shared positive feedback about the program.

 

“I can’t say enough about FlexAuto. It’s where I go now when I write auto business,” said an independent agent from Idaho. Another agent from Utah said, “I also like the fact that we keep our relationship with our Unigard underwriter.”

 

How Precise Pricing works 

Precise Pricing simultaneously considers a number of customer traits and how they affect each other. This sophisticated rating and pricing structure reflects an individual driver’s risk characteristics and results in more personalized and accurate premium pricing. Thirteen factors are considered including prior bodily injury limits, number of children, home ownership, number of vehicles and credit score/age comparison, among others.

 

FlexAuto’s automated underwriting model will place policyholders in the appropriate pricing tier based on their individual rating attributes, so the program can competitively write all levels of drivers, from an agency’s best drivers to those who’ve had a few bumps in the road. Discounts for multiple vehicles, anti-theft devices, passive restraints and driving activity-free will make premiums even more affordable.

 

“We hope agents consider Unigard every time they quote an auto policy,” said John Blodnick, vice president of personal lines at Unigard. “With FlexAuto they can now quote and submit a policy online immediately and easily for almost anyone who walks in the agency’s door. In addition, agents will maintain the same access to and relationships with their knowledgeable Unigard underwriters.”

 

A more competitive product

 FlexAuto provides comprehensive coverage options to a broader range of drivers.  “We designed FlexAuto so it’s easy for agents to use and understand while providing a more competitive product. It’s going to make their jobs much easier,” said Blodnick.
