IBERIAN Insurance Group held its X IBERIAN Day on November 14 at the emblematic Villa Luisa in Seville, with the attendance of more than 150 personalities from the national insurance sector, represented by insurers, brokers and other professionals, as well as names from the Andalusian economic sector.
IBERIAN took advantage of this event to celebrate the recent purchase from La Mútua dels Enginyers of a 100% stake in Crouco, an underwriting agency specializing in professional liability in technical lines, in a key transaction as part of its growth and expansion strategy following its entry with a majority stake in Alea Cover in 2021. With this move, the Seville-based MGA consolidates its leading position in the Spanish risk underwriting market.
“On this very special day, ten years after embarking on this project with a laptop and a cell phone, I only have words of thanks to all the people who have made IBERIAN possible: my partner, Cristian Mateos; our entire team at IBERIAN; the Alea Cover and Crouco teams, our insurance companies and, especially, our network of collaborators. Never in the best of my dreams in 2014 would I have imagined achieving what we have achieved in this decade but, above all, to be surrounded by all these great professionals and better people, friends, who trust in IBERIAN and who accompany us on our big day. In the next 10 years, what I really hope is that we do not lose our essence and that we continue to have fun working as we have done so far,” said Dario Spata, CEO of IBERIAN.
Cristian Mateos, Senior Underwriter & Partner, said: “In these 10 years, and despite all the challenges, we have positioned IBERIAN as a leader in the Spanish MGA market: we have built a team of more than 30 professionals with unmatched talent; we have acquired our own building; we are forming a group of underwriting agencies that are leaders in their segments, which has allowed us to exceed 5000 clients and the figure of 20 million euros in premiums that we had set as a goal at the beginning of the project. But if we are leaders today, it is undoubtedly thanks to all the professionals with whom we work and who share our particular business vision with IBERIAN. To all of them: thank you”.

On the morning of its 10th IBERIAN Day, IBERIAN organized a charity sports day at the Pineda Club in Seville with its 1st IBERIAN Charity Race, with distances of 2.5 and 5 kilometers.
