UK first quarter motor insurance premiums slip - AA

British car insurance premiums fell marginally in the first quarter compared with the previous three months, dropping back after sharp rises over most of last year, recovery service AA said on Friday. New business premiums often stall during the first quarter of the year and the AA said in a quarterly statement it expected the upward trend to resume. FTSE 100 firms such as Aviva, Direct Line and RSA are among those operating in the highly competitive car insurance market.
