Anon 09.41 - you're missing the point. Investment returns have been low for a long time, even with vast capital sums invested, the returns would not be sufficient to provide a significant profit margin for a business like an insurer.

If, for argument's sake, there are 20 million drivers in the UK all paying an average of £500.00 per year for their insurance... Well, that's around 8bn more than what the industry suggests that whiplash claims cost them per year. Crude calculation yes, but the suggestion that motor premiums don't provide any profit to the insurers is, frankly, tosh.
