Advised IK Partners on its acquisition of a majority stake in Ascora Group

Moncey Avocats advised IK Partners on its acquisition of a majority stake in Ascora Group, an insurance brokerage firm.

Founded in 1989, Ascora ranks among France's leading direct insurance brokers and offers a comprehensive range of services, from underwriting to claims management, across three key pillars: real estate, property and casualty insurance, health and employee benefits. Primarily based in the Île-de-France region, the group supports over 12,000 clients and has earned a solid reputation through strong technical expertise and a culture of proximity and trust.​

After more than thirty years at the helm of the group, Stéphane Henry wished to step down from his role as president. This transaction, structured with IK Partners as a management buyout, allows the management team led by the CEO to strengthen its equity participation while pursuing a targeted external growth strategy. Ascora aims to consolidate its position as a leading insurance brokerage platform, particularly through investments in its sales teams, digital tools, and the professionalization of its central functions.​

IK Partners was advised by a Moncey Avocats team composed of:

  • Guillaume Giuliani, partner, Alexandre Bankowski, counsel, Vianney Birot, Pénélope Renard, and Aloïse Graveraud, associates on corporate matters.
  • Frédéric Bosc, partner, and Margot Bosc, associate on tax matters.
  • Camille Cournot, partner, and Alexandra Fabbro, associate  on employment law matters.
