Second lockdown in France: general agents called upon to continue operating

The President of France, Emmanuel Macron, announced on 28 October 2020, a second national lockdown for one month.

The French federation of general insurance agents’ unions (AGEA) deems insurance as one of the activities fundamental to the country's economy. The federation therefore calls upon general agents to carry on their activity during this period in order to support and guide the customers.

The AGEA is thus providing the necessary means of protection to guarantee the employees/customers’ safety.
