Al Salmi pointed out that the new version of the policy focuses on transparency among the transacting parties to limit the disputes on the various interpretations as well as upgrading the levels of additional insurance benefits provided by insurers for more protection for policyholders and for more transparency and additional benefits appropriate for the requirements of various participants. He said the unified motor insurance policy affects the greatest segment of policyholders as the motor insurance in the Omani market represents about 44 per cent according to insurance indicators last year.
