The different insurance companies in Spain

In Spain and abroad, there are several types of contracts to allow you to address the dangers of professional activity: · Group Contingency Insurance: health welfare is a set of complementary social protection policies in addition to a compulsory scheme. They allow you to be better protected for various accident such as illness, maternity, disability, hospitalisation and death. In case of problems, this health welfare will provide significant financial compensation and avoid any difficulties for you and your employees. · Professional Liability Insurance: the insurance company agrees to indemnify and reimburse the damage caused by the company's activity. This coverage protects any assets and unexpected new staff. · Automobile insurance covers all motor vehicles in the company. When you move, it is important to assess early on and as accurately as possible the nature of any potential threats, the financial consequences and mediate between self-assurance and the transfer of risk to the insurer. · Comprehensive multi-risk insurance protects the physical assets in the company (furniture, machinery, real estate, equipment) but it also offers protection from civil liability to third parties, it guarantees the continuity of business in case of accident and preserves goods during transport. It is the most convenient option for overall coverage. It's the 'must-have' for companies in Spain.

Business Insurance in Spain: how to choose?
