Taking advantage of the presence of Bosco Francoy and Paola Serrano in Brazil, two specialized media outlets in the country echoed the visit with exclusive statements.

In the words of the recently appointed Head of Corporate and Brokers: “What changes is the customer’s opportunity to try a new service, whether from a broker or insurance company.” Bosco Francoy also mentioned a great positive aspect: “The big advantage for the broker is having a centralized structure in the country, with communication being much more agile.” The article also mentions sustainability and climate catastrophe management topics, not forgetting the strengths in the different lines, such as the added value offered by the Engineering Department to its Customers.

On the other hand, the interview published in Sonho Seguro, by Denise Bueno, Bosco Francoy spoke about MAPFRE Global Risks, MAPFRE Brazil’s new structure, and he analyzed the hard market context and directed a few words to the risk managers of the region: “At MAPFRE, we have a long-term commitment to the country and are here to help our clients mitigate these risks.”
