An insurance fraud is a real scam through which one tries to extort money from an insurance company in a fraudulent manner.

In recent years, the economic crisis has turned insurance fraud into a real social security cushion: a phenomenon by means of which individuals with the help of professionals such as lawyers, doctors, court experts seek to deceive insurance companies simulating fires, robberies and events of this kind.

There is one way to protect from this type of phenomenon: prior to signing a contract, insurance companies should make an “assessment” of their potential new customer.

From this research, a person’s involvement in advanced claims from any insurance company could emerge. For this kind of protection the company can turn to AZ InfoCollection: the group is in fact owns a database with daily updated information relating to road traffic accidents (names of insured counterparts, witnesses, license plate numbers, medical centers, law firms , etc.), that highlights in real time occurrences of data, underlining possible cases of serial fraud.

In recent months, the number of insurance companies that appeal to the investigation agencies has increased significantly. The goal is to test, verify and determine if everything stated in a claim for damages, sent by a lawyer to the insurance company is true, partially false or completely fake: a goal achievable thanks to a meticulous activity of the investigation agency.

This fact was evidenced by data processed in the last report of the Statistical Observatory of AZ InfoCollection

Milan, 5 February 2015 – The Statistical Observatory developed by AZ InfoCollection, a leading company in the field of infoproviding and credit servicing, periodically provides market data and processings on the indebtedness of Italians in the area of financial loans.

On a quarterly basis, the Statistical Observatory of the Group proposes an analysis of the profile of the borrower with loans in the field of consumer credit, considered to be difficult to recover.

Through the use of a proprietary database cyclically subject to refreshing operations, AZ InfoCollection, in May 2014 admitted to the Elite circuit of the Italian Stock Exchange, monitors trends in debts on the national territory by extracting clusters and groups with the goal of tracing the evolution of the socio-economic behavior of the debtor.

Specifically, the report analyzes the 6.9% of the total number of Italian households, on a total amount of problematic cases that in November 2014 reached the sum of 181 billion euro.

What are the main data that emerge through the Statistical Observatory?

The analysis highlights a number of trends from 2011 until 2014 that can be summarized by describing the following trends:

• Strong growth in the number of indebted individuals under 40 (3 points more), linked to the rise in youth unemployment;

• Growth in the number of indebted women: many more women find it harder to pay the outstanding bills (4 points). The reduction of the gap between men and women is a clear indication of the fact that families are trying to access credit using all available financial sources: more and more often it is the wife who takes the loan because her husband or other family members are probably already indebted;

• Increase in those with income less than 1,000 euro per month (7 points). This fact is explained by the use of increasingly frequent contractual forms of temporary employment regulations with meager salaries, particularly for women, with lower wages on average.

Moreover the analysis shows the following:

• Increase in the number of debtors of foreign nationality (2 points higher);

• Increase in the number of pensioned public employees in financial difficulty, while decrease in the number of entrepreneurs and freelancers;

• There are more debts in the North than in the Centre. This is understandable given that the percentage of loans in Italy highlights a concentration of 60% in the North, 23% in the Centre and 17% in the South.
