The Best Commercial Truck Insurance for 2022 – Investopedia
Truck Insurance
Truck Insurance: Financial Supervisory Authority (ASF) consulted with the carriers’ associations regarding the maximum tariffs for RCA for the next period, for high-risk insureds. For example, for a truck owner exceeding 16 tons, the price starts from a base of 9,662 lei for category B0, to which the Bonus/Malus classes apply.
ASF announces that, in accordance with the legislation in force, if the RCA policies offered for sale have values that exceed the level of the reference tariff multiplied by 1.36 (ie increased by 36%), these policies will be redistributed by BAAR at the value of the maximum tariff thus obtained, to which the corresponding Bonus/Mauls classes are applied.
For example, in the case of freight transport, for a truck owner exceeding 16 tons, who during this period experiences a significant increase in RCA policy rates, the maximum sale price established by the procedure stated above is 9,662 lei for the category B0 (reference rate 7,105 lei x 1.36 = 9,662 lei). All other bonus classes will thus have significant reductions compared to the maximum sales rate, explains ASF

The Financial Supervision Authority thus comes to the support of some socio-professional categories that are affected by the sale prices of RCA policies, practiced in the last days by insurance companies.
ASF specifies that, in order to apply this way of calculating the maximum tariffs for RCA, transporters’ associations were consulted and they agreed to this approach, which will be valid for the next period.
We also remind you that the Financial Supervision Authority requested all insurance intermediaries to immediately inform all clients of the fact that, if they receive offers from at least three different insurers whose RCA insurance premiums are 36% (“N” factor – https://www.baar.ro/asigurati-cu-risc-ridicat/) higher than the reference rate, related to the risk segment of which they belong, are included in the category of high-risk insured persons, according to Law no. 132/2017. This type of customer can request an offer for the conclusion of an RCA contract from the Bureau of Motor Vehicle Insurers in Romania (BAAR).
