As a rule, we act as an insurance broker in accordance with the brokerage contract. The services of the insurance broker are compensated by the brokerage to be borne by the insurer; this is part of the insurance premium. In the event that the broker arranges net insurance premiums for the client, the two contracting parties will agree in advance on the amount of remuneration to be paid by the client to the broker. In the case of a consultancy agreement, the amount of remuneration to be paid by the client to the broker will be agreed between the two in advance.

Our company does not hold any direct or indirect interest of more than 10% in the voting rights or capital of any insurance company. Conversely, no insurance company or parent company of an insurance company holds a direct or indirect interest of more than 10% in the voting rights or capital of our company.
