Casualty Insurance


Explanation:
Ramos Elementares são todos os ramos do seguro privado, exceto Vida e Saúde. São assim chamados “elementares” porque cobrem perdas, danos ou responsabilidades sobre objetos ou pessoas (acidentes pessoais, inclusive).

“Casualty Insurance” covers non-life insurances. The term is used as an alternative to liability insurance.
