International Insurance
Program
Internationalization
What You Should Know
Most of the time, international insurance
coverage is not adapted to the culture,
geographical location and/or level of autonomy
of the subsidiary.
In short, all its risks are not under control; its
subsidiaries are not advised by competent local
partners; Your budget and coverage aren't
optimized.
The solution: the "coordinated" insurance
program.
Stand-alone Policies
Pros
Stand-alone policies are taken out directly by
the subsidiary in Spain, regardless of any
coverage contracted by the group to which it
is linked. In this configuration, the advantages
are as follows:
•
Management of policies by the subsidiary
•
Local needs are taken into account
•
Risk and insurance control, without the
risk of having a "collateral gap" in relation
to the group's needs
•
Proximity service for the branch
•
Savings on premiums
•
Policies taken out in the language of the
subsidiary's country
•
Matrix control and visibility
•
Effective risk monitoring and
management
•
No language barrier
Mandatory Local Policies
Spain
Depending on the applicable collective
agreement (state, sectoral or company), your
subsidiary in Spain may be obliged to take out
insurance that covers the risks of death,
absolute permanent disability, severe
disability, etc. due to accident and/or illness;
and retirement (life insurance savings for
employees that guarantees capital upon
retirement).
These insurance policies are funded by the
company and rates vary depending on the
insurance company. Spanish insurers have a
rate maker with each of the obligations
stipulated in collective agreements, which
allows instant pricing and subscription. In
addition, guarantees, insured capital, and
other terms are revised based on changes in
regulations.
