It uses telematics both to offer fairer insurance premiums and to encourage better driving. The company story is another example of different worlds collidging. Steve Broughton, former CEO of insurance giant RSA saw the potential in founder Richard King’s idea and came on board early as chairman. After a chance meeting with Sir Frank Williams of the Williams F1 Team, he agreed to become an investor and partner.

Great product, great team, legendary chairman. Hello Wonga Future 50
