Coalition, a global digital risk and insurance provider, has launched its Active Cyber Insurance in France through its subsidiary, Coalition Insurance Solutions GmbH.
The product targets French companies with revenues of up to €1bn, offering innovative cyber risk management and primary cyber insurance coverage, according to FF News.
Coalition combines insurance protection with in-house cybersecurity expertise, technologies, and services, helping organisations identify, prevent, and respond to cyber threats. Through its proprietary platform, Coalition Control®, policyholders gain real-time alerts, vulnerability guidance, employee security training, and managed detection and response (MDR). The company also provides 24/7 claims and incident response support.
To lead its French operations, Coalition appointed Benjamin Barès as Head of Business Development. He will be supported by Frédéric Gatte, Director of Underwriting, and Production Underwriter Tom Paparella, with plans to expand the team across multiple French cities.
Coalition Head of Insurance, Continental Europe, Tine Simonsen said, “Coalition’s Active Insurance combines comprehensive cyber insurance with internal technical cybersecurity knowledge, technologies, and services for a completely integrated approach to risk. As global cyber threats grow, French businesses—small businesses especially—need an experienced and innovative insurance provider that not only helps mitigate financial losses, but also equips them with the cybersecurity tools necessary to better understand their risks, strengthen their defenses, and prevent future attacks.”
Barès added, “I’m thrilled to be joining Coalition, a trusted insurance provider for over 100,000 organisations and a partner to over 65,000 brokers worldwide. Our ambition in France—as around the globe—is to establish long-lasting relationships with brokers and agencies, supported by extensive training materials and broker-specific resources, as well as a streamlined quoting process that enables brokers to obtain quotes within minutes via our online Broker Platform.”
