Grupo Mexicano de Seguros, S.A. de C.V., was authorized by the Ministry of Finance and Public Credit to function and operate as an insurance institution, through Official Letter 366-IV-7018 of December 2, 1997. This authorization was last modified by Official Letter 101.-734.-731.1/320502 of May 30, 2003, published in the Official Gazette of the Federation on July 30, 2003.

2.
