OR Group Care with 30 years of presence in the Greek market and a subsidiary of the multinational group Groupama was acquired by the agency company Be.Brokersafter approval by the Board of Directors of Groupama Insurance (sole shareholder of Group Merimna).

As stated in a statement: “This agreement underlines the confidence of Groupama Insurance in the capabilities of Be.Brokers for the protection, development and assurance of the clients, partners and employees of Group Merimna.

With the acquisition of Group Merimna, Be.Brokers consolidates itself in the leading positions among agency brokerage companies. The main goal of Be.Brokers remains the first position in the service of partners and customers.

In the context of the acquisition, it was agreed to maintain the exclusive cooperation with the corporate sales network (Agency System) of Groupama. This collaboration ensures the availability of a complete range of products and coverage for the customers of the two companies. For insurance risks that are outside Groupama’s underwriting framework, Be.Brokers will take care of providing the best possible insurance solution from the market.”

Mr. John BravosCEO of Be.Brokers, said:

“The acquisition of Group Merimna is a new, important milestone for our company. It is a special honor for us, the trust of the Groupama group, as it is not a simple acquisition but also a collaboration agreed with the exclusive network of Groupama insurance.

Undoubtedly, the cooperation with a large multinational group highlights the ability of Be.Brokers to serve and develop the insurance portfolio of Group Merimna. It highlights our commitment to continuous growth and the provision of a high level of service to our customers.

It’s the biggest brokerage acquisition of 2024 and an important moment for Be.Brokers. The integration of the experienced management force and the strong sales network of Group Merimna will contribute to the strengthening of Be.Brokers.

Be.Brokers is a company with the sole purpose of serving insurers and has the trust of intermediaries for its good management and non-negotiable respect for their portfolios. Exploiting customers, bypassing partners, insurance transfers and any other act that may not be in the best interest of our partners are prohibited and outside the culture and logic of Be.Brokers.

This partnership fits perfectly into our growth strategy and is a big step towards creating a modern large company selling insurance products through insurance agents.”

Mr. Christos KatsiosCEO of Groupama Insurance, said:

“Group Merimna, through its acquisition by Be.Brokers, strengthens its perspective for continuous growth and consolidation in the field of insurance mediation. At the same time, this acquisition also marks an important step in strengthening the exclusive sales network of Groupama Insurance. I am confident that, through our cooperation with Be.Brokers, we will continue to provide high-quality service to our clients, according to the standards of the Groupama Group.”
