Motor

RCA (responsabilità civile auto) is compulsory. Optional garanzie add physical-damage and assistance covers.

Fabbricato vs contenuto distinctions matter for owners and tenants.

Life assurance

Temporanea caso morte (term) is the common pure protection product.

What to do this week

  2. Keep fabbricato and contenuto sums separate when you renew.
  3. Confirm live rules with IVASS.
