Apr 2005 The Société Nationale d'Assurance (SONAS) has undertaken an awareness-raising campaign regarding the obligation of fire insurance for buildings housing people. SONAS proposes a policy with a 100 USD premium for a a guarantee of 1 million USD. Fire insurance is compulsory but seldom used. Only 5% of buildings are insured. SONAS has also resorted to the authorities for the creation of an insurance higher institute.
