Would Gringott's from the Harry Potter series honor a USAA insurance policy?
For that matter, would USAA even *have* accounts/policies for the Wizarding Community?

This is an oddly specific question, does the Wizarding world even have insurance policies?
>>49246430
I would like to think so, but I don't know for sure unless I suddenly grow a pair and ask JK Rowling on Twitter, which I don't see happening anytime soon.

It would make sense for them to, magical accidents and all that business. It's something that has always bothered me about the universe is the Wizards have a strong vibrant community that you only see the surface of but in order to have that surface there would have to be a larger population of wizards than what is stated in the books doing all the other implied jobs to keep the system moving forward

Given the extent of USAA within the USA and its associated military ties, I would suspect it'd be somewhat known to major financial institutions in ally nations; I would assume Gringott's, being to the scale they are, would know of USAA. At a guess, it would be honored to the degree that at least a moderate muggle UK financial institution is honored; how much that would be though, I am unsure.
Noting that the British gov't is barely aware of non-muggle things (UK or otherwise), I'd assume that any dealing between Gringott's and muggle financial institutions would involve some intermediary company (though USA institutions may be more or less aware, it's unstated).
I would assume in general that USAA wouldn't know of Gringott's (aside from possibly some higher ups making a reasonable guess) but may well work through an intermediary in dealing with them regardless.

Honestly, I imagine that at least some of the magical Ministry's job is dealing with various intermediaries. That said, more than a few wizarding areas seem to function on having already been set up and cleared long ago, legal registry-wise, and don't seem to need much in the way of utilities.

The potterverse doesn't have great world-building.

Honestly I think your biggest problem here is going to be the fact that USAA is focused on helping American military families and thus Americans in general. They're more likely to have a liaison with the American magical government/banks than the British one. Thus the process of getting anything taken care of now has to jump across multiple magical borders.

Sorry, meant to respond to OP

It would work for shit like the Mist in the Percy Jackson series, but not for a world where magic is hard to hide.
Which reminds me, why the fuck don't wizards in HP own everything? Is there some sort of secret society that would rise up and crush wizards with antimagic or even, if you're willing to go this far, divine magic if they tried? After all, ghosts exist and apparently Death is a person, so there being some sort of ensured divine intervention isn't out of the ballpark.

I think the explanation already in place is the best one, Wizards aren't invincible and there are a whole shit ton more Muggles than them. A gun will kill them just as dead

Except USAA, from what I've been told, are literally able to get people insured for when the apocalypse rears its ugly head.
>>49249255
Really, what kind of insurance policy is that, and how would you even be able to collect on it? Do they have a structure out there designed to survive the apocalypse? Because if they do that's badass
