As an international business, manage all your risks and optimise your insurance programmes

Verlingue supports your company’s international development. Supported by a specific team of experts in our subsidiaries in the UK, Switzerland, Portugal and Italy, as well as by the international network of WBN brokers, we help you build and optimise your international insurance programme.

Whether in the field of employee protection or business risks, practices, regulations and guarantees vary greatly from one continent or country to another. Companies that are developing their export business or setting up subsidiaries outside France must adapt to each local insurance context. In addition to managing their international operations, companies must also be prepared to face various forms of uncertainty above and beyond their usual business risks: geopolitical, social or economic crises, natural disasters or weather events, and, of course, health crises. Insuring your company’s international operations is not something to be taken lightly. Specialised in managing employee benefits on a global level and international risk pooling, Verlingue optimises your insurance solutions and supports your business worldwide.
