Ageas has re-enforced its commitment to the UK broker market by joining the Co-op Insurance household panel, further strengthening its presence in the UK home insurance market.

Co-op Insurance is part of the Co-operative Group, a UK-based member-owned organisation established in 1867. With over 6 million active members, Co-op is one of the UK’s most recognised consumer brands.

This new partnership builds on an already successful relationship between Ageas and Co-op in private motor insurance. By extending its partnership into household insurance, Ageas will provide additional capacity and expertise, helping Co-op Insurance to offer even more choice to its member owners and customers.

Gary Keelan, Partnership Development Manager at Co-op Insurance said:

“We’re pleased that Ageas have joined our home insurance panel. Having already partnered with them on our motor panel, we know that their underwriting expertise and understanding of the evolving needs of policyholders will leave us even better-placed to deliver quality home insurance for our member-owners and customers.”

Ben Travis, Head of Strategic Accounts at Ageas UK, commented:

"We remain solidly committed to insurance brokers trading in personal lines and so we’re delighted to extend our partnership with Co-op into household insurance. Having already worked together successfully on their private car panel, this is a natural next step and reflects our commitment to building strong, collaborative relationships that deliver real value for customers."
