Our take
Targeting the staggeringly big home insurance market, Luko delivers a range of insurance options, that leverage smart home devices to help transform home insurance from a reactive model to a proactive, preventative one.
One of the most interesting things about Luko is its "Giveback" policy, that was designed to combat the conflict of interest found in traditional insurance - where the less the policyholder is reimbursed, the more the insurer makes. Luko instead employs a transparent model that directs 30% of contributions to the company, 70% to a pool from which claims are paid, and any money left over at the end of the year is donated to an association chosen by the customer.
The company's ultimate aim is to offer a fully-integrated home care platform, that will encompass comprehensive coverage, prevention, maintenance, and repair. After a tumultuous year for its holding company, Luko agreed to an acquisition by Germany-based Allianz in 2024, which will strengthen the latter's position in France and maintain the core assets of Luko's business, whilst saving jobs and market share.
