Six firms on the new panel
Allianz Insurance has increased the size of its motor fraud investigations panel following a review of its five-strong panel.
The six firms on the new panel are Robertson & Co, Cunningham Lindsay (Complex Motor Fraud Unit), Watershed Claims Services, QuestGates Ltd, Inverita Validation Services and The Cotswold Group.
The panel was last reviewed in 2004, when five firms were selected. The latest review, which began in 2006, was based on general motor investigation work. Surveillance was not part of the review.
The review was scored against adherence to Allianz Insurance’s own service level agreement and also used qualitative measures.
Mihir Pandya, Allianz Insurance fraud manager, said: "This review is part of a regular review of our fraud panels. In view of the nature of the often very different skill sets and experience within the fraud investigations industry, rather than reduce the panel, we have increased to six firms to ensure that our needs are met across all of our motor fraud work and to enable the appropriate focus in the right areas.
"We will have a rolling six month review of these firms and we are introducing an incentivisation scheme whereby the top performer in any six month period will be guaranteed the larger percentage of instructions."
