May Bodily Injury Claims in Europe– Facts and Developments*) According to last CEA statistics, published in 2010, Europe is with 315m vehicles the largest motor market of the world. Comparing with the increase of vehicles of 1,9% each year, the growth of bodily injury claims of 2,3% per year is slightly higher. Total expenditure of bodily injury claims is quoted with 50% of all MTPL claims expenditure, even though the share of counted claims is only 14% (Italy 22%, France, Germany, Austria 10%, Hungary 2,4% of counted claims). The share of large personal injury claims (>€ ) counts only 1,1% of all personal injury claims, however they represent 37% of all personal injury claims expenditure MTPL (roughly € 10bn). Statistics show a large spread between European States and an West-East divide. *) Source of data and graphs: CEA Statistics No. 38 – European Motor Insurance Market, publ. February 2010
