Sompo looks to expand in Germany and Europe with HQ move to Cologne

Bermuda-based global specialty re/insurer  Sompo International Holdings has moved its German operations from Dusseldorf to its new headquarters in Cologne, as part of its “ambitious” growth strategy in Europe.

Eric J. Kox, Germany Country Manager said: “Our new office in Cologne is the latest development in Sompo International’s ambitious growth strategy for Germany and Europe.

“We have now launched our German Global Risk Solutions business unit and are excited to continue to grow and bring more of our expertise in specialty lines, comprehensive vertical solutions and risk services to the German market.
