Abstract
The following article is mainly aimed at respond to a question arise on account of the process of liberalization of insurance trade, and responds to the need to indentify the judge who shall have the faculty of settle disputes arising as a result of an international insurance contract. Hence, we are going to analyze specific considerations about local laws on governing jurisdiction, as some special regulations in comparative law, including the possibility of resolving that question through contractual consensuality. Finally, with the aim of discerning the broad picture, we will study the possibilities for residents in Colombia who will acquire a insurance with companies located abroad, and will be favored by a court decision to pursue the recognition and enforcement of these in the countries where they find themselves located these companies.
