SIDE EVENT: The role of the insurance sector in a context of systemic risk

 

An insurance system responds quickly to those affected and makes it possible to repair, give continuity to productive activities and avoid the collapse of an entire sector or region that is directly and indirectly affected (Banks, agriculture, independent workers, consultants, companies of services, etc.).

A good coverage system requires the support and promotion of the government, in such a way that risk diversification guarantees the continuity of the insurance system.
