How do you quickly arrange your car insurance KYC?
Most of us shy away from filling out our KYC or Know Your Customer data. In the world that is spinning at a breakneck pace, who has the time? But just as you don’t enter into an alliance before you know the partner or only hire someone after a conversation, it is beneficial for both the insurer and the insurers if they know each other.
The KYC process is the bridge that connects policyholders with the insurance companies. The fact that KYC adds security and convenience to the insurance process has been mandated by the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDAI) for the purchase of all types of insurance including motor insurance from January 1, 2023.
Previously, the clients were asked to provide the KYC documents only at the time of the policy claim, even if the claim amount was more than €1 lakh. The new KYC compliance rule requires customers to provide KYC data at the time of purchasing or renewing their policies.
The IRDAI Directive has come to reduce the fraud and money laundering associated with insurance and policyholders get all the benefits of their insurance coverage.
The new KYC rule makes car insurance more watertight than before. With Bajaj Allianz, all you have to do is log in to the website, click on car insurance and follow the steps. And if you already have insurance, contact Bajaj Allianz and get your car insurance KYC ASAP.
What is KYC in car insurance?
KYC or Know Your Customer is a process of verifying an insurer’s identity and address before performing a financial transaction, such as digital money transfer or taking out insurance.
The first step in the process is to collect the policyholder’s personal information. The client completes a KYC registration form and validates the information provided by attaching supporting documents. For correct identification, the submission of proof of identity, proof of address and a recent passport photo is mandatory. A periodic KYC update ensures that a customer is real and prevents money laundering.
The customers have options for online verification or offline KYC, and even video KYC. When it comes to doing KYC for car insurance, Bajaj Allianz is one of the most trusted and experienced companies, making the whole process nothing short of a smooth ride. *
Advantages of KYC in car insurance
Now we all know how important it is to insure your car. A good insurance policy will cover a person against damage, whether caused by themselves or a third party. The insurance coverage also takes care of incidents such as accident, fire, theft or natural disaster and saves you the costly service of the damaged car.
We know how you can easily and quickly take out or renew your car insurance through Bajaj Allianz General Insurance. But before you get excited about closing the deal, the first step to buying auto insurance is submitting your KYC documents. This move brings several benefits in addition to a positive change in the insurance ecosystem. Some of them are listed below:
Reduce the chance of fraud claims
Providing KYC data helps to verify the identity of policyholders and reduce the risk of fraud. The insurance process is based on trust and transparency. By submitting the data, the insurance company gets a clear and detailed customer profile with which to assess the policyholders’ claim, leading to better risk management. *
More certainty
We live in a digital age where personal information is always at risk of being misused. Having accurate and updated KYC data not only ensures a smooth flow of information, but also ensures that the customer’s personal and financial information is safe. *
Customer satisfaction
