"We were immediately attracted to the DNA of the Meilleurtaux Group because of its strong presence on the web, its brand awareness and its know-how in digital acquisition and digital paths. After three years of structuring our operations and strong growth in all our businesses alongside Activa Capital, joining Meilleurtaux is a new development opportunity for Active Assurances.”

Thomas Riottot, Chairman of Active Assurances Groupe

Founded in 2010 by Thomas Riottot, Denis Salmoiraghi and Didier Naccache, Active Assurances has enjoyed uninterrupted growth since its launch.

The company has quickly established itself as a leading independent online car insurance broker. With management centres in France and Madagascar, the Active Assurances group is set to generate 120,000 new policies during the 2020/2021 financial year (ending in June) and double its turnover.

This new operation, scheduled for the end of April 2021, comes only three years after Activa Capital and Bpifrance joined the Group. During this period, Active Assurances has developed a wholesale division, completed the transforming acquisition of AFI Assurances created by Frédéric Bacmann, enabling it to duplicate its health insurance model, and acquired a portfolio of complementary health policies.
