Many parties are involved in the current political discussions (e.g. FIDLEG, revision of the Insurance Contracts Act (VVG)) revolving around how buyers of insurance products can be protected in an effective and efficient manner.

What protection do they need and in what situations? Thus far, consumers have not voiced any opinion on this subject.
