Unfortunately, such parentage is too difficult to take shape. CASH had to go solo without taking specific advantage from its prestigious sponsor.
After a difficult start, the company has finally managed to get established on the Algerian insurance landscape.

Intent on building up a balanced portfolio, CASH no longer wishes to be the insurer of a few mega risks. Henceforth, it shall target a clientele of small and medium sized enterprises which it endeavors to retain through a distribution network in full development.
It is up to the management team to prove that there is a genuine market of industrial risks willing to go in line with a professional entity that has the capacity to make dreams come true.
