OREANDA-NEWS. Fitch Ratings has published a new Guatemalan Insurance Dashboard. The report highlights the key events that affected the industry as of June 2015.

The Guatemalan Insurance Dashboard discusses the industry's actual and growth rate, which has slowed down, below other countries in the region. The report examines the challenges for the outstanding operating performance of the Guatemalan insurance market, which has been affected by aggressive competition in some business lines, such as health and fire and autos. Therefore, modifications in insurance companies' portfolio distribution should be an opportunity, seeking for more profitable risks.
