The Cuban superintendent said her country had made much progress regarding insurance, a small market with many products, the official said.
One of the leading ones in Cuba is Agricultural Insurance, due to the country’s geographical situation, natural events occur and bring eminent consequences, so insurance undoubtedly responds to these losses, she explained.
