Financial Institutions

In a sector that brings together diverse businesses based on the management of financial flows and stringent regulations, risk management is at the heart of all organisations.

Insuring your companies in the Financial Institutions sector

In a demanding environment, insurance, rather than an expense, is becoming an asset in its own right, making it possible to adapt the resilience of its business model through a strategy of transferring operational risks.

Poorly managed operational risks destabilise the economic equilibrium of companies, create the risk of being called into question by third parties or the regulator, and often disorientate teams. The responsibility of players in the Financial Institutions sector for these operational risks is becoming more and more like an obligation to achieve results.

This is why risk transfer policies need to be incorporated into risk management models at a very early stage, so that the expected levels of protection can be effectively calibrated. The diversity of the risks you face means that support from an expert broker is essential.

Both upstream and downstream, the result of our actions is to secure your operational organisation, your assets and your employees, so that you can concentrate calmly on your development in France and abroad.

To achieve this, we work with you to organise a risk transfer strategy that aims, among other things, to protect :

  • Your Professional Civil Liability
  • Your Directors
  • Your Cyber risks
  • Your exposure to fraud, both internal and external
  • Your movable and immovable assets
  • Your M&A operations
  • Your intellectual property
  • Your credit risks
  • Your exposure to political risks
  • Your employees through health and provident solutions
