Malta-based legacy acquirer DARAG has acquired Luxembourg-based automobile and travel insurance company Arisa Assurances.
The deal was carried out through DARAG’s German risk carrier, DARAG Deutsche Versicherungs- und Rückversicherungs, after receiving all requisite regulatory approvals.
Financial terms of the deal, which was first announced in August this year, were not revealed.
Arisa, which was previously owned by ADAC Versicherung, marks DARAG’s first acquisition in Luxembourg.
The company intends to transfer Arisa’s insurance portfolio, which mainly comprises motor third party liability business, to DARAG Deutsche Versicherungs- und Rückversicherungs with effect for its Luxembourg branch which will be launched later.
DARAG CEO Tom Booth said: “Our local expertise and operational capabilities are paramount to maintaining DARAG’s reputation and leading position in the European legacy market and our business continues to develop in the region as a result.
