History
editThe company was founded on July 1, 2013[3] when the Italian branch of Assicurazioni Generali was transferred to INA Assitalia and the name was changed to Generali Italia SpA. The insurance activities of the Toro Group (Toro, Lloyd Italico and Augusta) were then integrated. Sergio Balbinot was the first chairmen and Raffaele Agrusti the CEO; their office lasted until the approval of the 2013 financial statements. On 7 October 2013 Philippe Donnet joined the Generali Group and became Country Manager Italy and CEO of Generali Italia.[4]
In May 2016 Marco Sesana was appointed Chief Executive Officer and General Manager.[5][6]
In the following three years a new phase started and two new companies were born: Generali Welion,[7] an integrated welfare company, and Generali Jeniot,[8] which deals with IoT services and connected insurance.
In May 2020, IVASS, the supervisory entity for the sector, ordered Cattolica's top management to carry out a capital increase of 500 million by 30 October 2020.[9]
On 25 June 2020, Generali and Cattolica announce a strategic partnership which consists in the entry of Generali into Cattolica with a stake of 24.4 percent[10][11]
In November 2021, Generali held 84.475 percent of Cattolica's share capital.[12][13]
