Ecclesia takes over Asigest Germany
Detmold – The Ecclesia Group is acquiring Asigest Deutschland Versicherungsmakler GmbH, based in Hamburg, with retroactive effect from January 1, 2024. The company will be integrated into the Ecclesia subsidiary Schunck Group, the leading broker for transport and logistics.
“Asigest offers the Ecclesia Group an exciting customer portfolio with a focus on the Asian region. Asia is a market with great growth opportunities in which we have hardly been active so far. This will now change,” says Jochen Körner, CEO of the Ecclesia Group.
With the acquisition of Asigest Deutschland Versicherungsmakler GmbH, a specialist broker for marine and container cargo, the Ecclesia Group is also bringing a range of new solutions and services on board. “On the one hand, we are pleased that we can further deepen our specialist know-how in the field of logistics and bundle it at the strategically important Schunck location in Hamburg. At the same time, our portfolio will become more colorful with the addition of special lines solutions,” explained Richard Renner, CEO of the Schunck Group.
“The takeover also has clear advantages for Asigest Germany. In order to be able to react adequately to cross-divisional customer requirements in the future, technical and process expertise as well as a strong implementation team are necessary. All this is now available to us and our customers with the Ecclesia Group. Under the umbrella of the Schunck Group, we will be able to offer a wide range of additional solutions to our existing network and to new customers in the future – and we are looking forward to the challenges of the brokerage market with great confidence,” says Dirk Schröder, who, together with Thorben Wittig, is managing director of Asigest Deutschland Versicherungsmakler GmbH.
