To get my M4 insurance here in Belgium I need to have that in my car. Otherwise I have to pay twice as much  .

In a sense yes it does. Use the BMW Remote app. It has a map feature where you can pinpoint the exact location of the car. IMO - it's spot on.
If your car was indeed stolen, I believe as long as the battery is connected the GPS will be enabled.
Also, if you call BMW services they can locate your car down to a few feet using the same method. I forgot my PIN number for the app and hit the SOS button. The agent asked me all these verification questions and what not. Then was like is your car located at XXXXXXXXXXX street? Should your car be stolen, I'm positive BMW would have zero problems locating it within minutes after you call and notify them.
These types of services aren't really an "alarm" more like a recovery feature.
