The winner of the 2020 British Insurance Law Association Book
Prize, this timely, expertly written book looks at the legal impact
that the use of 'Big Data' will have on the provision - and
substantive law - of insurance. Insurance companies are set to
become some of the biggest consumers of big data which will enable
them to profile prospective individual insureds at an increasingly
granular level. More particularly, the book explores how: (i)
insurers gain access to information relevant to assessing risk
and/or the pricing of premiums; (ii) the impact which that
increased information will have on substantive insurance law (and
in particular duties of good faith disclosure and fair presentation
of risk); and (iii) the impact that insurers' new knowledge may
have on individual and group access to insurance. This raises
several consequential legal questions: (i) To what extent is the
use of big data analytics to profile risk compatible (at least in
the EU) with the General Data Protection Regulation? (ii) Does
insurers' ability to parse vast quantities of individual data about
insureds invert the information asymmetry that has historically
existed between insured and insurer such as to breathe life into
insurers' duty of good faith disclosure? And (iii) by what means
might legal challenges be brought against insurers both in relation
to the use of big data and the consequences it may have on access
to cover? Written by a leading expert in the field, this book will
both stimulate further debate and operate as a reference text for
academics and practitioners who are faced with emerging legal
problems arising from the increasing opportunities that big data
offers to the insurance industry.
