Based on the data obtained, the ratings of an insurance company are confirmed.

Insurance company ratings

The system of compulsory civil liability insurance, or OSAGO, is used not only in the CIS countries, but also in many other states. The main purpose of such a system is to protect the property of people and the health of drivers and passengers of vehicles. The main difference between the OSAGO insurance system and CASCO is just one point: OSAGO is voluntary insurance, in which the policy received by a person concerns not only the integrity of the car and the driver himself, but also the protection of other people's health and property. Such obligations are fulfilled by a number of companies that are licensed and included in its general system.

IN modern world very often companies appear and disappear in the insurance market, which, in the course of their illegal work, are declared bankrupt, it is very important to know the ratings of such enterprises in advance in order not to get into those insurance companies that do not even have a license for this type of activity. We have provided a rating of insurance companies of the year for both types of insurance for all segments of the country's population.

Basic information

Before announcing the top companies in terms of payments, it is necessary to remind all citizens that 4 entities are combined together under the insurance policy:
herself Insurance Company or insurer;
a citizen who concludes a contract or an insured;
persons who suffered damage in the event of an accident or beneficiaries;
The Russian Union of Motor Insurers, which controls the payment of funds, the relationship between all subjects and compliance with all the rules that the organization has taken on.

The official website of the Russian Union of Motor Insurers provides an opportunity to see a list of all insurance companies for which the license has been revoked, restricted or the license has been suspended. Based on this information, rating agencies compile a list of the most reliable and most unfavorable insurers.

Financial ratings of insurance companies

The financial rating compares insurers based on statistical indicators. This rating is based on the official reports of insurers published quarterly by the Central Bank of Russia. Sales of insurance services to legal entities and individuals are taken into account.

The key indicator to be measured is the level of payments. The payout rate shows the percentage of fees that the company has paid out in a year in restitution to customers. Optimal payout level Russian market is approximately 55-65%.

If the percentage of payments on insurance obligations is too high (for example, 75-85% or more), this indicates that the insurance company does not adequately assess risks or significantly reduces sales. And so and other situations speak of potential problems of the insurer.

If the percentage of insurance payments is too small (for example, 40% or less), the insurer most likely saves on payments. The company underestimates the amount of insurance claims, or simply refuses to pay insurance claims to its customers. This can be indirectly confirmed by the judicial rating of insurance companies. If a company saves on payments, there is a high probability that such an insurance company high percent litigation in relation to the claimed damages.


Class "A++" - exceptionally reliable reliability rating

Class "A +" - very high level of reliability

Class "A" - high level of reliability

Class "B++" - acceptable level of reliability

Class "B +" - a sufficient level of reliability

Class "B" - satisfactory reliability rating

Class "C +" - very low level of reliability

Class "C" - unsatisfactory reliability rating

Class "D" - bankruptcy

Class "E" - license revocation

Almost every driver wants to buy mandatory insurance at a low price. There are many offers - here for 7,000 rubles, tamza for 8,000, and here for 1,500 at all. What is the reason for such a difference, and is it worth paying more? In which company is it better to issue OSAGO?

Variation in prices among insurance companies

The difference in the cost of compulsory insurance for different insurers is approximately 20% and it is associated with the use of a price corridor. That is, they are allowed to make a calculation in the range from the minimum base rate to the maximum. For passenger cars - this is 3432 rubles. and 4118 rubles. respectively.

Also, the cost of the policy depends on the age of the driver, length of service, type of vehicle and engine power, region of residence, etc. For example, insurance will cost more for a young driver than for an experienced one. And it is cheaper for a resident of Moscow than for a citizen registered in St. Petersburg.

But if in the same locality under the same conditions (age, length of service, car, etc.), the prices of insurers differ, choose a cheaper option. The high cost is associated with the calculation at the maximum rate, rarely with the inclusion of additional services. You can refuse them, this is purely voluntary. In both cases, the insurer must fulfill the obligations in the required amount.

Basic tariffs are set at the state level, and insurance agents are not entitled to overestimate or underestimate them. Therefore, the price of 1500 rubles. for auto insurance - a clear sign of a fake. Having bought it, the car owner runs the risk of paying the damage to the injured party himself if an accident occurred through his fault. It is almost impossible to get an insurance payment for such insurance.

So in which company is it better to issue OSAGO? In a reliable, which will be able to fulfill its obligations in the required amount and on time.

Russian motorists are considering the official rating of insurance companies 2017 OSAGO out of curiosity or out of habit. The compulsory nature of the mandatory policy affects all aspects of the insurance process, the ranking becomes formal.

Principles of compiling official and independent ratings, difficulties of an objective approach

Of the four parties to the insurance process, the controlling and arbitration body (the Russian Union of Auto Insurers) does not have the right to interfere in the ratings and influence them. The official website of the PCA is of interest to policy buyers only with a list of insurance companies whose license has been revoked or restricted, excluded from the union.

The most interested party, those who suffered in an accident, does not influence the process of acquiring an OSAGO policy in any way, the opinion of the victims is reflected only in the "people's" ratings. For a car enthusiast who buys a mandatory policy, important points become only the stability of the company, the speed of acquisition and the price of the policy. At the same time, the legislative framework for minimum and maximum prices neutralizes the interest of car owners in finding a cheaper (by 200-300 rubles) policy.

Most important is the official expert rating of OSAGO insurance companies in 2017 for leading insurers. Apparently, the position in the rating for large companies is image and prestigious. It is difficult to talk about the struggle for a buyer, the advertising component of the ratings, when the Internet is full of reviews about 4-5-month long queues and refusals to purchase a policy, which are unthinkable for foreign insurance companies.

Raise doubts and methods of compiling ratings. Formally, everything expert organizations base ratings on the definition of:

  • the reliability of the insurer (determined by the length of service, quantitative indicators of fees and payments);
  • the number of customers (formally indicates the popularity of the company);
  • speed of recovery of losses;
  • the number of court cases;
  • service level (based on customer feedback).
