Prices for OSAGO policies continue to rise again, notably increasing the number of drivers in the country who have refused to purchase the infamous insurance policy. According to the results of independent surveys, many car owners buy policies only so as not to get into trouble with the traffic police. Meanwhile, the Duma opposed the increase in the cost of “avtocitizen”. But will this make sense?

Not only do insurers fail to meet their obligations every time and “by the lip”, the policies themselves are also constantly growing. There seems to be no end to this. It’s not for nothing that auto experts predict a collapse of the auto insurance market and especially OSAGO.

They also became active in the Duma. So the chairman of the Just Russia – For the Truth party, Sergei Mironov, criticized both money-hungry insurers and the intentions of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation to expand the OSAGO tariff corridor by 26% due to a sharp increase in the price of auto parts. In his opinion, the Central Bank is deliberately ignoring the factors affecting the automotive spare parts market, as component prices have already crept back down. In other words, everything is being done to increase rates.

“Indeed, when the ruble fell sharply, this was reflected in the cost of spare parts. But now the price is completely different, in February there was a jump and already in April the price tags started to fall. In addition, the government has allowed parallel imports, which will lead to a significant reduction in the cost of auto parts. According to some estimates, original spare parts supplied by independent importers can be at least 20-25% cheaper. In fact, the Central Bank rushed to take advantage of the situation to lobby for the interests of those it should “regulate” — in this case, insurers. Which unfortunately did not surprise us for a long time, ”Sergey Mironov, head of the Just Russia – For Truth faction, told the AvtoVzglyad portal.

Everything makes sense in general, but it is unlikely that Mr. Mironov’s statements will fundamentally affect the costs of OSAGO.
