München, 25.06.2024
GÖRG, led by Munich partner Dr Philipp Grzimek, has advised Summitas Gruppe GmbH on a company takeover of Wolf Assekuranz Service GmbH, based in Essen. As an independent insurance and financial broker, the company advises clients in the property and facility services sector.
The Summitas Group is a joint venture founded in 2022 by JDC Group AG, Bain Capital Insurance and Canada Life with the aim of creating an integrated insurance broker with a comprehensive range of services. With the acquisition of Wolf Assekuranz Service GmbH, the company is further expanding its presence in North Rhine-Westphalia, thereby increasing its product and customer portfolio in the region.
Lutz Richter, CEO of the Summitas Group, commented on the acquisition: "With Wolf Assekuranz Service GmbH, we are taking another important step in the implementation of the Summitas strategy and sharpening our profile in western Germany. With Peter Plaß and his team, we have strengthened our expertise in the area of customer-centred commercial insurance."
Peter Plaß, Managing Partner of Wolf Assekuranz Service GmbH, commented: "With the Summitas Group, I have found the right platform to further develop Wolf Assekuranz Service GmbH in a customer-centred and dynamic way over the next few years. With its infrastructure, expertise and financial strength, the Summitas Group is the ideal partner for this."
GÖRG's advice on the takeover was already the twelfth transaction for the Summitas Group in which the company has relied on the expertise of the lawyers around partner Dr Philipp Grzimek.
