The BCU register publishes no licence category. BCU Comunicación 2024/272 records BOTTIAS SEGUROS (Uruguay) S.A. changing its denomination to this name, and the BCU market workbook gives its lineage as CAUCIONES (2017) > BOTTIAS (2023) > BARBUSS RISK (2024), i.e. a surety (caución) insurer, but the current licence scope is not published. Group taken from the BARBUSS brand in the BCU communication; barbuss.com describes a global risk group operating in the United States, the United Kingdom, Europe, Latin America, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East and Africa but does not list its Uruguayan entities, so the domicile of the parent is not established.
