Insurance brokers will be selling increasing types of cover related to the sharing economy in 2017 according to Mahendra Nambiar, vice president of global insurance solutions and innovations lead, at Capgemini.

"There will be new insurance products," stated Nambiar noting that these would likely be focused on usage-based insurance.
