Detica has released results from a MORI poll exploring public attitudes towards insurance fraud. A key finding of the research is that while most people think that a proportion of a typical insurance premium does go towards paying for insurance fraud, most overestimate the amount.

In fact, the true figure is just 3.75% (source: Association of British Insurers).
