Our firm's consultancy is designed for:
Insurance companies
Insurance companies and insurance intermediaries based in Italy and in European Union, operating under the rules on establishment or under the freedom to provide services
Intermediaries
Intermediaries included those that provide comparison services
Insurtech undertakings or startup
Insurtech undertakings or startup
Those who know that combining insurance with their own, different products or services gives them authentic added value
Those who know that operating in the insurance industry means entering a sometimes illogical and irrational maze of primary and regulatory standards that must be carefully read and applied, without any form of improvising or shoddiness
Those who believe that a sailing ship can get to its destination faster than an ocean liner
The operating model
The careful selection of clients and type of assignments allows our firm to better focus on specific areas of expertise and gives us the opportunity to refer the care of certain ancillary aspects to other complementary professionals.
Over the course of a decade, the approach has proved successful and has enabled the firm to develop partnership with excellent operators in the insurance industry for the management of ordinary and complex situations.
All with the maximun care in the search for solutions that reconcile compliance with laws with the need to not hinder the operating processes of businesses.
What we do not do
Our firm does not deal with court cases and rejects the logic of the industrialization of consulting processes.
This is because we believe the increasingly widespread idea that legal activities can or, worse, must be standardized in the name of speed and efficiency, is wrong.
While such values are essential, they can be better pursued with an authentic spirit of artisan care of the cases.
Yet not sidestepping the challenging opportunities offered by digitalizzation.
