“During the transition period, MAB and Intégrale will take all steps necessary to prepare for a seamless transfer for policyholders, brokers and staff. In the meantime, Intégrale’s staff will continue to service policyholders and brokers as usual.

“We are delighted to have reached this agreement with Intégrale. Acquiring the portfolio of Intégrale allows us to secure policyholders’ benefits and the continuity of employment of the staff of Intégrale. It fits perfectly with our strategy of growth and consolidation in Belgium and strengthens our position as the leading life insurance consolidator”, said Koen Depaemelaere, CEO of MAB.
