Abstract

Agricultural loan insurance is one of the main risk transfer mechanisms used by the producers in some regions of the country. This insurance guarantees a percentage of the loan budget, thus assuring the payment of the agreed financing. Initially the present article analyzes the State of São Paulo Insurance Company (Companhia de Seguros do Estado de São Paulo - Cosesp) loan insurance origins and evolution, and later on its expansion to other States. Moreover, it details the main features of the contract. Despite the importance of this mechanism for the agricultural sector development, the insurance program did not reach a reasonable participation rate on the part of producers
