Numerous studies have shown that financial organizations' profitability is closely associated with customer retention (Garland, 2002; Anderson; Reich held and Sasser, 1990). Maintaining an existing customer is five times cheaper than obtaining a new one as the advertising, sales, and set-up costs can be amortized over a longer customer lifetime (Morgan, 2007; Clemes, Gan and Zheng, 2007; P Achheld and Sesser, 1990). The insurance industry is a very competitive industry. They must develop strong relationships with their customers in order to compete successfully. However, customers are also more prone to change their automobile insurance behavior when they can purchase nearly identical financial products provided by the competitive companies.
