Specialty MGA Optio Group has advanced its European expansion by completing a strategic investment in the Italian MGA Heca S.r.l., following regulatory approval.
Founded in 2010 in Ortona, province of Chieti in Abruzzo, Heca has rapidly grown to become a leading MGA in Italy, Optio stated.
Offering a diverse multi-product portfolio and a fully digital experience with a personalized touch, Heca is well-positioned to further expand its market share in Italy.
The investment, initially announced in November, underscores Optio’s commitment to establishing a balanced, buy-and-build platform, with European acquisitions playing a key role in achieving this objective.
This announcement follows the successful completion of the acquisition of Netherlands-and-Brussels-based MGA Den Hartigh in November.
Optio’s recent acquisitions also include its plans to acquire Luxembourg-based, film and events specialist MGA the Circles Group, pending regulatory approval.
