La firma asseguradora també ha avançat que llançarà la seva filial d’automoció i llar al mercat dels EUA a partir de 2017. Mapfre ha recordat durant la junta que va pagar més de 540 milions d'euros en impostos el 2015, amb una taxa impositiva efectiva del 30,4 per cent. La companyia també ha posat en marxa el Pla de Sostenibilitat 2016-2018 i el Pla de Transparència Activa, “que han de contribuir a afermar la visió de Mapfre com a asseguradora global de confiança”, segons ha informat en un comunicat.'
