APRIL Entreprise Lyon (formerly CIARE / SEPCOFI / Haussmann Conseils)

APRIL Entreprise Lyon is the insurance advisory and brokerage partner for companies

Dedicated exclusively to corporate clients, APRIL Entreprise Lyon is supported by a pool of expertise and skills in corporate insurance, covering industrial risks and group personal protection schemes.

Complementary knowhow and a global offer with high added value

With a very good fit between their respective customer bases, the operating synergies, particularly sales synergies, between the three former companies will strengthen the service offer and insurance cover extended to existing active customers and attract new customers as part of an overall sales approach. The newly-formed entity consolidates APRIL Entreprise Lyon’s position as a leading local player for small and medium-sized companies, strengthens the operating teams and constitutes a starting point for expansion into markets such as the healthcare, green technology and digital economy markets.

Thanks to stronger negotiating power with the various insurance companies, APRIL Entreprise Lyon is now in a position to offer personalised solutions, specific to each corporate profile and geared to its customers’ best interests, thus ensuring the best cost/cover/service equations in their insurance policies. APRIL Entreprise Lyon is involved early on in the customers’ insurance process, performing an in-depth analysis of existing cover and of the corporate risks involved in order to determine the company’s risk profile and draw up a tailored policy that goes beyond companies’ general conditions: extension of guarantees and better account taken of the operating constraints of the business.

With reference to APRIL Entreprise Lyon, Nicolas Farrer, Chairman and CEO, said, “We are extremely enthusiastic about the opportunities for development that this merger will create. We’re going to mobilise all our forces to present a comprehensive offering of insurance services in the best interest of our corporate clients. We shall continue our efforts as regards innovation, devising new solutions and efficiently covering our corporate clients’ existing needs and those that arise in the future.”
