Within the UNIQA Group, the international part weights about 40% of the total business, offering in the future, especially in Central and Southeastern Europe, the greatest growth potential. About 55% of the clients already come from this region.
In order to strategically support and steer more than 40 foreign companies, an independent international holding company was established: UNIQA International Insurance Holding AG.
UNIQA International pursues a differentiated region-based strategy, according to the specific needs of each area:
- Central Europe (Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia)
- Southeast Europe (Albania, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Montenegro, Macedonia, Kosovo, Serbia)
- Eastern Europe (Romania, Ukraine)
- Bancassurance (Russia, Slovenia and all other international markets)
- Western Europe (Switzerland, Germany *, Liechtenstein, Italy)
A strategic framework for these regions was defined in detail, in order to ensure the best achievement of medium-and long-term group goals in regions. The focus is on operational excellence through best practice transfer, development and integration of the full customer approach and on the bancassurance strategy implementation.
The UI Management Board team consists of dedicated international experts with long group-wide experience:
