Generali has completed the legal integration of the former Liberty Seguros, acquired in January 2024. According to the press release, the transaction, largest for the Group in a decade, further strengthens Generali’s position as a leading European insurer.

After the successful completion of all required steps and the receipt of the necessary regulatory approvals, Generali has finalised the legal integration of Generali Seguros y Reaseguros S.A.U. (formerly Liberty Seguros) and Generali España S.A. de Seguros y Reaseguros, which will operate under the name of Generali España de Seguros y Reaseguros S.A. This follows the successful conclusion of all required legal processes for the formal transfer of the business of Liberty’s Portuguese branch to Generali Tranquilidade this August, the press release said.

“This is a significant milestone that demonstrates the effectiveness of our Group’s strategy and Generali’s strong ability to continue delivering growth and performance across core geographies. This transaction was a unique opportunity to further reinforce our leadership position in the European insurance sector and as a result, Generali has become an even stronger, more diversified, multi-channel insurance player in key markets, creating significant long-term value for all stakeholders and underlining our Lifetime Partner commitment to customers. Moreover, this achievement marks the successful completion of a major cross-country integration involving three countries within our Group”, commented Jaime Anchùstegui, Deputy CEO Insurance, Generali Group.
