Would others agree that a good translation for "garantías contratadas" would be ""agreed types of cover"? I'm pretty comfortable with it, but would appreciate confirmation if possible.
Many thanks

Covers insured
Explanation:
As you say, the garantías are the "covers".

And in this case, having been "contratadas" they are insured.

As far as I know "cover" can be pluralised and is.

A quick search finds major UK insurance companies that use it.

For example, RSA:

"12 | Open Market Insurance PolicyProperty Damage Insurance. If any of the Property Insured described in the Schedule suffers Damage at the Premises by **any of the Covers insured** the Company will in accordance with..."

Covers: The following are the Covers insured except a) in respect of the Property on the stall during working hours **the covers not insured** are 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11b) as otherwise stated in the schedule

Business Interruption InsuranceIf Damage by **any of the Covers insured** occurs at the Premises"

We don't know what context you're referring to.

Many thanks Andy and everyone else. I hadn't realised that covers (plural) is acceptable and I prefer your "insured" to my "agreed", which I had used because we generally tend not - in the UK at least - to use the word "contracted" to mean "entered into a contract with" or "agreed". I nearly always translate "contrato" as "agreement", which is the more common term in the UK. This is not to say that we never use "contract" or "contracted"; of course we do, but "agreement" and "agreed" are more commonly used in the UK.

Explanation:
Guarantee (guaranty ) and insurance are not the same.

Guarantees apply to third party beneficiaries.

insurance covers > classes of insurance coverage > taken out


Explanation:
Insurance translators - even thouse who have worked in the business - dislike the idiomatic expression of 'taken out' /suscritas from the insureds' and policyholders' angle/ though insurance and legal clients never had a gripe about it.

My only problem with the - or my non-copyrightable - translation technique of 'types of cover' is that it implies that the classes of cover/age 'para los distintos Grupos y Asegurados' fall into different categories. Hence my middling and mediocre confidence level.

Notes to answerer
Asker: ah, thanks Andy. I haven't seen covers (plural), hence why I went for types of cover. And insured is better than agreed; I was just trying to find a workaround for "contracted".

Asker: Thanks Andy, it's Accident insurance.

Asker: Personal Accident insurance

contracted guarantees


Explanation:
I actually agree with you with "agreed types of cover", but i would suggest a very simple one, that says the same and goes directly with the original text:
contracted guarantees
