Spanish term

suscribir (here)

Spanish to English Bus/Financial Insurance market situation
Consequences of the stock-market crash:
"Trajo tres consecuencias para los asegurados: la primera es que tuvimos grandes dudas sobre la solvencia tanto del mercado directo como del mercado re-asegurador, sufrimos la desaparicion de algunas coberturas y tuvimos grandes problemas de capacidad para *suscribir* otras."

Is this saying that not only did some coverages disappear, but there were also serious problems in trying to obtain/sign up to others?

underwrite

otro sentido de "suscribir" es "to underwrite". creo que eso es más apropiado para este contexto.

underwrite:
To assume the risk of securities' sale by purchasing the securities from the issuer for resale to the public. Investment bankers often assume this underwriting function in order to guarantee that the issuer will receive all the funds needed from the sale.
