- This new agreement consolidates and continues the relationship already initiated between the two strategic partners in life insurance.
- The aim is to continue to promote the insurance business of both entities, increase added value to clients and guarantee the competitiveness and efficiency of the business.
Crèdit Andorrà and Caser Seguros have extended their collaboration and reached a new agreement resulting in the Spanish company entering the non-life insurance business of the Andorran financial group. This deal reaffirms the strategic alliances between the two companies, which began in 2019 when Caser Seguros entered the financial group’s life insurance business by acquiring 51% of CA Vida Assegurances’s capital.
The agreement between the two strategic partners is intended to continue to boost the insurance business of both entities and increase added value to clients. The joint project will allow for a competitive and efficient response to the long-term challenges of a financial and insurance sector in the midst of a global transformation process and the adoption of new regulatory standards.
Following the agreement, Caser Seguros will hold 59.72% of the shares of Actiu Assegurances, a company in which Crèdit Andorrà Group has held a 44.65% stake up to now, and which after this operation will now hold 25% of the aforementioned company.
The CEO of Crèdit Andorrà Group, Xavier Cornella, said that “this new agreement reaffirms the willingness to collaborate between the two leading entities in their respective sectors”. Cornella also highlighted the fact that they “have the same strategic partner to grow in the life and non-life insurance business, which is key and complementary to the banking sector”.
The CEO of Caser Seguros, Ignacio Eyriès, explained that the strengthening of the agreement with Crèdit Andorrà “intensifies the banking and insurance capacity of Caser, developing the business in Andorra, and reaffirms the commitment to collaboration with the leading financial group in the Andorran market, with whom we have built a unique strategic alliance”.
