Less than half of Australians trust insurers to hold their personal information securely , a survey by DXC Research and Telsyte has found . “Given the findings that 67% of respondents would not recommend a role in the insurance industry, there is clearly a need to step back from the challenges upon us and shift this perception by acknowledging the achievements and accomplishments we do every day.” Only 28 % of the 2,100 Australians said they trust insurers with their data , despite supporting increased use of digital insurance , while 47 % said they trust the information would be used strictly for its intended purpose . A lack of trust could hinder the growth of the digital insurance market , said DXC ’s Michael Neary .
