As Mexico prepares to welcome the world, we are proud to see the country playing a central role in the upcoming World Cup, hosting matches and serving as the operational base for seven national teams. This highlights Mexico’s importance as a key logistical and organisational hub for one of the world's most significant sporting events.

With established offices in Mexico City and Monterrey, Advanta is well positioned to support the insurance market throughout the tournament. Under the leadership of Miguel Ángel Sánchez, Edgardo Velázquez, and Rogelio Medina, Claims Manager of our Monterrey office, our local team provides extensive coverage across the country.
