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

"Both organisations will extend their agreement to promote insurance mediation and develop their professional training activities for a further year. "

Plus Ultra Seguros, which will soon become Occident, and the Málaga 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 the region. Thus, Plus Ultra Seguros, along with the rest of the GCO (Grupo Catalana Occidente) traditional business companies, will continue to participate in conferences and seminars organised by the Association, in support of this professional network.

The agreement was signed at the Association's offices and was attended by the Plus Ultra Seguros Regional Director of eastern Andalusia and Murcia, Alberto Bartolomé, and the President of the Association of Insurance Mediators of Málaga, Moisés Núñez de Bien.

During the meeting, Bartolomé highlighted the importance of the role of insurance mediators, stating that "this type of collaboration allows us to strengthen relations with a group that is fundamental to our business model".

According to Moses Núñez de Bien, the "Association of Insurance Mediators of Málaga maintains an excellent relationship with Plus Ultra Seguros, which adds great value to the reputation of professional insurance mediation in our region".

Occidente, the new brand of Plus Ultra Seguros

At the end of February, GCO announced the merging of its 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.
