Drive Assist were previously one of the most trusted names in the sector and Chief executive, Steve Binch has ordered an investigation into the matter but claims that the e-mail was simply a result of an employee misunderstanding a team meeting on hire days.<br /><br />This may or may not be this case but whatever the outcome of the investagation, this has done nothing to help the already fragile relationship between the two industries.<br /><br />In other sectors, Directors &amp; Officers rates are set for an increase following the exposure of fraudsters such as Bernard Madoff and Allen Stanford.<br /><br />Also it appears that womens car insurance prices are actually catching up with the men. A study found that for the same age group, male insurance premiums had rose on average 13% from last year whereas the female premiums had rose by 17%. - Not such careful drivers afterall i hear the men shout!<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_WSPE8DtSvZE/S4K0W0AkL4I/AAAAAAAAAA8/2XKDmCkuRZU/s1600-h/qbeLaunch-211009.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; cssfloat: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" ct="true" height="118" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_WSPE8DtSvZE/S4K0W0AkL4I/AAAAAAAAAA8/2XKDmCkuRZU/s200/qbeLaunch-211009.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>QBE Insurance has made moves to heighten its public awareness by striking a deal to become the official partner of England rugby. This strikes me as quite a strange choice of sport for an insurer given the high risk nature of injury. I can't help thinking that Brit Insurance' sponsorship of the Oval cricket ground is somehow more appropriate?<br /><br />Finally, some news on our website.
