Of course, a concern right, with focus on the protection of consumer interests and that basically requires improved performance of insurance activity in their contractual responsibilities. While it which not often said, is just keeping real customer responsibilities in conformity with the contractual obligations of insurance companies, to support and respect the law enforcement. Such an approach will constitute the core of this paper.
