Plus Ultra Seguros, which will soon become Occident, renews its commitment to the Jaén Association of Certified Insurance Mediators

"The brand has thus extended its agreement with the company for further year, with the aim of strengthening the role of insurance mediation. "

Plus Ultra Seguros, which will soon become Occident, and the Jaén Association of Certified Insurance Mediators, have renewed their collaboration agreement in a bid to strengthen the standing of insurance mediators and promote their activities in Jaén. Thus, Plus Ultra Seguros, along with the rest of the GCO (Grupo Catalana Occidente) traditional business companies, will continue to strengthen its commitment to the group's commercial development in the region.

Likewise, in virtue of this agreement, it will also promote the participation of the insurance company in events carried out by the Association to support the network of certified mediators, which highlights the importance the company attaches to it.

The agreement was signed at the Association's headquarters and was attended by the Plus Ultra Seguros, (soon to be Occident), Regional Director of Insurance Mediators in eastern Andalusia and Murcia, Alberto Bartolomé; and the President of the Jaén Association of Certified Insurance Mediators, Javier García.

Bartolomé underlined that the insurer would continue with its clear and committed focus on insurance mediation in Jaén, as it is a "important collective for providing our customers with personal and professional service, offering them the products and services that best suit their needs."

García showed appreciation for the "ongoing support the Association has received from Plus Ultra Seguros, a leading company committed to mediation and that seeks continuous development in the sector". "This renewal makes it possible to strengthen the training of insurance mediators, improve their skills and, thus, offer a better service to customers", he added.

Occident, the new brand of Plus Ultra Seguros

At the end of February, GCO announced the merging of the traditional business companies (Seguros Catalana Occidente, Plus Ultra Seguros, Seguros Bilbao and NorteHispana Seguros) under a single brand, Occident. This merger is part of the corporate simplification process that the insurance group put in motion years ago and aims to achieve a more streamlined organisation that responds quickly and effectively to market demands.

The unification process will be implemented in two phases: first, predictably at the end of 2023, the merger of Seguros Catalana Occidente, Plus Ultra Seguros and Seguros Bilbao will take effect, which will then operate under the Occident brand. In a second phase, at a later date, NorteHispana Seguros will also be included.
