Casa Luker

From <www.casaluker.com>:
The design and symbology of Casa Luker´s flag was created by the manager of the commercial unit, Mr. Jorge Augusto Salazar Pineda, along with the agency Crear Ideas of Bogota. The rising sun from the green mountains of our native land symbolizes naturalness, freshness, food and respect for nature. The sun, which casts its rays over the work and Casa Luker´s dynamics in the market place, is symbolized in the color of the earth. The sun has the dynamics of the light projected towards the infinite blue that invites us to act with dynamism, innovation and energy. That rising sun that moves and changes in the day, that with the force of its rays renders light, warmth and life, symbolizes our professionalism, fellowship and daily commitment.
This is our flag, a symbol of who we are and how we live in Casa Luker."

In Colombia there's an economic group (holding) called Grupo de Inversiones Suramericana S.A. (established in 1999 as Suramericana de Inversiones S.A., INVERSURA) the parent of the following subholdings:
- Suramericana de Seguros S.A. (<www.suramericana.com>) first established as Compañía Suramericana de Seguros S.A., in 1944. This company in 1997 split its investments in other related companies, aside from its core business in the insurance sector, thus creating Suramericana de Inversiones S. A., SURAMINV, which in turn became the mother company). Currently the name Suramericana de Seguros S.A. gathers actually two companies (for legal government reasons and regulatory rules in the country that states that a company that sells life and health insurance cannot be the same company that sells automobile and general insurance in order not to concentrate too much risk for operational reasons, thus having actually two companies, but in practice is just one). These two companies are: Seguros de Vida Suramericana S.A. and Seguros Generales Suramericana S.A.
- Compañía Suramericana Administradora de Riesgos Profesionales y Seguros de Vida S.A., SURATEP (<www.suratep.com>) established in 1996, now called Seguros de Riesgos Profesionales Suramericana S.A
- Compañía Suramericana Administradora de Servicios de Salud S.A., and Susalud Medicina Prepapgada, SUSALUD (<www.susalud.com>) established in 1990, now both merged and called EPS y Medicina Prepagada Suramericana S.A.
- I.P.S. Punto de Salud S.A., now called Servicios de Salud IPS Suramericana S.A.
