SYNETERISTIKI INSURANCE. was born in 1978 with its roots in cooperative ideology. The Greek agricultural cooperative organizations founded the first and only cooperative insurance company. Later, the company’s statutes were modified and allowed other forms of local cooperative organizations (credit, consumers, etc) as well as major European cooperative insurance organizations, such as Unipol Assicurazioni (Italy), Macif (France), P&V (Belgium), Euresa Holding, to become shareholders and offer their remarkable know-how from their respective markets. Today, the company’s shareholders number 123, all representing the wider social economy sector.

OUR LEGAL FRAMEWORK
Syneteristiki Insurance since its foundation is an Insurance Societe Anonyme
Company and operates according to the Greek Law in relation to the operational
status of all Greek insurance companies. The corporate share capital has been
fully paid by its shareholders.
In 1994, the company’s statutes were modified; thus an
increase of the share capital took place and with the participation of its
European partners, SYNETERISTIKI Life was created.
Finally, in 1999 SYNETERISTIKI Life and SYNETERISTIKI Insurance merged in order
to attain a better and more flexible as well as competitive mutual functioning
of both companies. In addition, the company’s administration is always targeting
at the accomplishment of further corporate growth and products enrichment with
new insurance policies.
