Factors Affecting Your Car Insurance Premium

Type of Coverage and Insurance Extension
The premium amount will be influenced by the type of coverage and also the insurance extension you choose. Generally, there are two types of coverage that you need to know, Comprehensive and Total Loss Only (TLO). With different types of insurance coverage available, the resulting premium is going to be affected. A comprehensive package with numerous features will naturally cost more than a lower-tier option. The same goes for optional extras, should you wish to add them on to your existing policy.
When buying insurance, it's crucial to carefully consider the coverage limits and ensure they align with your potential risks and needs.

Vehicle Age
The age of a vehicle is a key factor in determining car insurance premiums, both for comprehensive and Total Loss Only (TLO) policies. The Financial Services Authority (OJK) regulates which vehicles are eligible for comprehensive and TLO insurance in Indonesia.

Location
Motor Vehicle Insurance premiums are indeed affected by the area where the vehicle is primarily used. Insurance companies assess risks based on location, with areas experiencing higher accident rates, theft, or severe weather events often resulting in higher premiums.

Vehicle Usage
Car insurance premiums are indeed calculated based on risk, and vehicle usage is a significant factor in determining that risk level. Cars used for different purposes, like private, official, or commercial use, have varying levels of risk, and this is reflected in the premiums charged by insurance companies.

Always double check every policy guarantee and insurance premium offer according to your needs. Contact Sahabat Insurance marketing team for more info via WA 021-50508080.

Fitch Assigns Sahabat Insurance First-Time National IFS Rating of A(idn)

Fitch Ratings - Jakarta - 12 Mar 2026: Fitch Ratings Indonesia has assigned PT Asuransi Sahabat Artha Proteksi (Sahabat Insurance) a National Insurer Financial Strength (IFS) Rating of 'A(idn)'. The Outlook is Stable.
The rating reflects a 'Moderate' company profile and stable profitability, which are offset by its lower regulatory capital ratio than peers. The rating also reflects a conservative investment approach and domestic reinsurance coverage.
'A' National IFS ratings denote a strong capacity to meet policyholder obligations relative to all other obligations or issuers in the same country or monetary union, across all industries and obligation types
KEY RATING DRIVERS
'Moderate' Company Profile: Fitch assesses Sahabat Insurance's profile based on a 'Moderate' business profile and 'Neutral' corporate governance compared with other domestic insurers. The insurer, established in 1996, was known as PT Bess Central Insurance from 2011, and changed its name to Sahabat Insurance in 2020. Sahabat Insurance's market share is small, with 0.5% of gross premiums written (GPW) in the Indonesian non-life industry in 2024.
Sahabat Insurance's main businesses are motor insurance, at 76% of total GPW in 2025, and property at 10%. It mostly sources business from leasing companies (66%), followed by brokers (13%) and the direct channel (13%).
Lower Regulatory Capital Ratio: Sahabat Insurance's regulatory risk-based capital ratio fell to 188% by end-2025 from 203% at end-2024, driven by a rise in premium reserves due to premium growth. This was well below the industry average of above 300%. Equity capital rose on surplus growth, to IDR345 billion from IDR296 billion. It estimates that the implementation of the new accounting standard PSAK 117, the local equivalent of IFRS 17, will lower equity, which would remain above the new equity requirement of IDR250 billion in 2026.
Stable Operating Performance: Operating performance has been stable over the past three years. The insurer booked 7% GPW growth in 2025, after an 8% decline in 2024. Nonetheless, it has maintained an underwriting profit for at least the past three years. The 'combined ratio' increased slightly to 96% in 2025, from 93% in 2024, due to higher premium reserves arising from premium growth in motor and fire. The three-year average combined ratio was 94% over 2023-2025.
Net income rose to IDR48 billion in 2025, from IDR38 billion in 2024, on higher investment income following a shift in its investment mix. Return on equity increased to 15% in 2025 (2024: 14%), which was high relative to peers, with a three-year average of 14% over 2023-2025.
Conservative Investment Portfolio: The investment portfolio is conservative and liquid, with around 74% of total invested assets placed in cash and time deposits, followed by fixed-income securities of 25% and a small portion of stock. Fixed-income securities comprise only government bonds, after the insurer shifted its investment allocation from mutual funds in 2025. Exposure to 'risky assets' is kept at a manageable level relative to equity.
Domestic Reinsurers Dominate: Sahabat Insurance cedes a portion of its premiums through proportional, non-proportional and excess-of-loss reinsurance treaties to mitigate catastrophe risks. Its reinsurance treaties are primarily with domestic reinsurers. Exposure of the capital base to reinsurance recoverables was low compared with peers, at 37% at end-2025. The premium retention ratio - net premiums written to GPW - was high, at 81% (2024: 85%), as it retains most of the premiums from its motor vehicle business.
RATING SENSITIVITIES
Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Negative Rating Action/Downgrade
- Weakening capitalisation, with regulatory risk-based capital ratio persistently below 180%.
- Deterioration in financial performance, with the combined ratio above 105%.
Factors that Could, Individually or Collectively, Lead to Positive Rating Action/Upgrade
- Stronger capitalisation, with regulatory risk-based capital ratio persistently above 250%.
- Consistent improvement in the company profile, including a larger market franchise and diversification of business lines.
