MAPFRE Assistance has entered into a partnership with ASKY, a Togo-based airline serving 19 destinations in central and western Africa, for the provision of automatic travel insurance for all of its passengers, which could reach around 500,000 by the end of 2012. By means of this agreement, MAPFRE Assistance continues its expansion in sub-Saharan Africa where it has already secured a number of partners in the insurance and travel sector.
