The latest market analysis published by an ESOMAR-certified market research and consulting firm estimates, that the overall usage insurance market will reach US$ 150 Bn by 2031, expanding at a whopping CAGR exceeding 17% across the forecast period.

Prospects took a temporary dip in the first half of 2020, as the COVID-19 pandemic halted automotive manufacturing and distribution operations.

After combining, Cambridge Mobile is to provide telematics services to 21 of the 25 largest auto insurers in the U.S.
