Germany's largest car insurer HUK-Coburg has to increase premiums during the switching season due to inflation and rising costs, as Uwe Stuhldreier, board member of HUK24, reported in an interview. Large reinsurers such as Munich Re have announced that they will increase premiums for primary insurers in order to protect themselves against damage. At the same time, claims costs in the automotive segment are rising significantly, primarily due to increased costs for spare parts, repairs and labor costs. The insurance industry is expected to record losses of around three billion euros this year. Therefore, HUK-Coburg and other insurers have no choice but to increase contributions next year.

Car insurer HUK-Coburg increases premiums due to rising costs - financial expert Uwe Stuhldreier in an interview

Deutschlands größter Autoversicherer HUK-Coburg muss aufgrund der Inflation und steigender Kosten die Prämien zur Wechselsaison erhöhen, wie Uwe Stuhldreier, Vorstand der HUK24, in einem Interview berichtet. Große Rückversicherer wie die Munich Re haben angekündigt, die Prämien für Erstversicherer zu erhöhen, um sich gegen Schäden abzusichern.

Although Stuhldreier does not provide precise information about the price increases, he suggests that they will be in line with the market. The General Association of the German Insurance Industry estimates that insurers will increase their premiums by double digits. The price increases affect both the tariffs of HUK-Coburg and those of the direct insurance subsidiary HUK24. However, HUK24 customers benefit from a price advantage because there are no commissions.

In the current switching season, Stuhldreier expects that many customers will switch to cheaper vehicle insurance policies due to tight household budgets, especially to HUK-Coburg and HUK24. The insurer is hoping for above-average profits here, as HUK24 is positioned as the market leader in the direct motor vehicle insurance market.
