What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Motor insurance requires third-party coverage, which only covers damage caused to others. Own Damage (OD) cover is necessary to protect against damage to one's own vehicle, such as structural damage from falling trees or water ingress. Even when OD cover is held, the insurer may not settle the entire repair bill, requiring the customer to approve a repair estimate after a surveyor inspection.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

Many buyers forgo OD cover because it increases the initial insurance cost, despite it serving as primary financial protection against natural calamities. The industry is currently under scrutiny regarding its policy structures and claims processes.
