Global Gruppe was founded in Cologne, Germany, in 1999 as a reliable, broker-led, B2B insurance broker. The firm combines the stability of being a top 3 DACH mid-market broker with the innovative drive of a market challenger. Its rapid growth has been the direct result of its client-focused approach, providing businesses and entrepreneurs across the DACH+ region with specialist led, superior risk solutions and expert counsel as well as being an acquirer of choice for founder-owned brokers looking for succession.
As the fastest growing DACH+ insurance broker, there is a clear path to Global Gruppe becoming the largest insurance broker in the region.
Following a bilateral process with direct access, Castik invested in conjunction with our LP co-investors for a majority position in 2023, with Global Gruppe’s co-founders significantly re-investing alongside the previous private equity investors.
Castik partnered with management to support the next stage of Global Gruppe’s growth into adjacent markets and geographies, and to create a vertically integrated buy-and-build platform of scale.
