A home can take twenty or thirty years to build, pay for, and turn into family wealth. An earthquake can change that story in less than a minute.
In Ecuador, that risk is not hypothetical.
Our country is part of the Pacific Ring of Fire, the most seismically active region on the planet. In addition, the Nazca Plate moves beneath the South American Plate, a process that generates some of the strongest earthquakes affecting Ecuador.
In 2016, the country saw the consequences firsthand. The 7.8-magnitude earthquake destroyed around 20,000 homes and generated reconstruction costs estimated at $3.3 billion.
Now think about your own home.
If it suffered severe damage tomorrow, could you use your savings to rebuild it, replace your belongings, and continue paying for a place to live while everything is restored?
A home insurance policy can protect one of the most important assets in your life against earthquakes, fire, and other covered events. Depending on the policy, it may also protect personal belongings and help with additional expenses associated with a major loss.
And here, who helps you insure your home matters just as much as what you insure.
BlueBox Insurance Advisors has spent more than a decade helping protect families and assets in Ecuador. With offices in Cuenca and Manta, a complete bilingual team, access to multiple insurance companies, and carefully selected products, we help clients find a strong balance between coverage, service, and price.
Our work does not end when the policy is issued. If a loss occurs, our team assists with documentation, inspections, and the claims process with the insurer.
Because after an earthquake, it may be too late to decide to insure your home.
The best time to protect your property is while it is still intact.
