Compre Group, a legacy insurance specialist based in Bermuda, has expanded its portfolio by acquiring European casualty and motor liabilities from two international insurance groups.
Financial terms of the transaction and the details about the sellers were not disclosed.
Compre has received all relevant approvals from Bermudian and European regulators for the deal.
The approvals will enable Compre’s class 3B Bermudian reinsurer, Pallas Reinsurance Company, to reinsure around €200m ($218.97m) of reserves across key European markets.
The portfolios encompass liabilities in France, Germany, Italy and the Netherlands.
Compre European claims director Marialuisa Petrella said: “We are delighted to have been able to assist our clients in achieving their strategic objectives with regard to these portfolios and look forward to working to achieve an excellent outcome for all stakeholders.”
