Focus of the Day Article:
Fraudulent insurance claims fell in number but rose in value last year, costing the insurance industry £1.3bn in total, an Association of British Insurers (ABI) report has shown. The report, published this week, found more than 500,000 insurance frauds were detected last year, of which 113,000 were fraudulent claims and 449,000 dishonest insurance applications. This represents an 8% fall in number of fraudulent claims but one per cent rise in value.
