Italian Argo subsidiary rebranded

Argo Group International Holdings has rebranded its subsidiary Ariscom, which it acquired in March 2018. Ariscom is now named ArgoGlobal Assicurazioni.

The company also confirmed that Giovanni Tucci is managing director of the business, reporting to Matt Harris, head of Europe, Middle East and Asia, as announced in April 2018.

“This new branding further unifies the company and reflects Argo’s extensive ambitions for the Italian marketplace,” said Harris. “By aligning our Italian operation with the Argo brand, we will be better able to realize our growth aspirations across continental Europe and leverage the strength of Argo Group to generate new distribution channels.

“ArgoGlobal Assicurazioni provides us with an exceptional platform in one of the continent’s largest and best performing non-life insurance markets. We now have the requisite local infrastructure, team and client network to complement Argo Group’s expertise, product innovation and proven digital solutions, which will enable us to grow first in Italy and then in additional markets in which we have identified longer-term growth opportunities.”
