Alfa Sigorta Still "Good" for Insurance Activities
After much delay restored the activity of the insurance company Alfa Sigorta.
According to the State Insurance Supervision Service of the Ministry of Finance, perpetual license granted to the company on April 3, 2013.
Recall that the action of the five-year license for the professional activities ended on February 8, and an application for an extension was filed allegedly Ministry after the deadlines.
According to observers, the pressure on Alfa Sigorta is artificial and continues for a long time, since the pressure on its founder - Bank Technique. Last year, it was deprived of the right to service a new kind of compulsory liability insurance of vehicle owners to third parties (CTP), as a result was not counted at least a million manat premiums. Then, as the cause of punishment the Ministry referred to the fact that customers are ostensibly prohibited by the law to offer discounts and incentives. Perhaps, the public service is not monitored in the companies, not the least revealed many cases of violations orders and in other settings, too.
Company by market capitalization and the presence of representatives of all economic regions is one of 12 members of the Bureau of compulsory insurance, with 28 companies in the country.
Insurance company Alfa Sigorta has been at the local insurance market since 1997 and provides services for 25 types of insurance.

In Azerbaijan, the government has increasingly relied on tax exemptions for imported goods as a tool to stabilize domestic market prices. The exemption from the 18% VAT on wheat imports, extended this year, exemplifies this approach. New measures have also been introduced, including tax relief on imports of electric vehicle chargers, while exemptions for high-cost medications are currently under discussion. Notably, defense imports continue to be free from taxes and customs duties.
