2021-11-15T10:44:44.838Z


The subjects inherent in insurance and health weigh heavily in business. Due to lack of time, but also given the technical nature of these subjects, managers and HR departments increasingly need trusted third parties to manage them. For 50 years, the COLONNA group has been delivering ...


People at the heart of performance

The social protection sector lags behind in terms of innovations; third-party payment and teleconsultation were the most notable advances in recent decades. The COLONNA group entered the market 50 years ago with an ambition to rethink the way in which the group insurance business is carried out. This 100% independent family business has been passed down from generation to generation and is now in the hands of Xavier COLONNA. The manager wanted to preserve the DNA and know-how of the Group, while improving its skills in order to meet the new challenges of client companies, in support of an innovative approach to the business.

From advice to the management of the administrative tasks of policyholders, the company operates throughout the life and health insurance value chain. Really convinced that a balance between the economic performance of companies and well-being at work is possible, the Group has opted for intelligent digitization by developing tools and technologies that allow this transition to be successfully carried out. The Group is working to deploy innovative solutions and tailor-made support in order to guarantee the best possible development of employees. The quest for this virtuous circle between well-being and business growth is the challenge of the COLONNA group. A challenge that is part of a modern strategy that is in tune with our times: putting technology at the service of people, and not the other way around.

The COLONNA group: a broker and manager who is reinventing personal insurance COLONNA Group

A center of expertise based on three ambitions

The support offered by the COLONNA group is based on a plural know-how segmented into three poles.

It is the complementarity of these three areas of expertise that enables the Group to provide a global service with high added value.

Offer personalized advice on social protection

The legitimacy acquired by the Group in the field of brokerage in group insurance of persons over the past 50 years is closely linked to the quality of COLONNA Broker's expertise, as well as to the care taken by the Group to favor proximity and the transmission of know to its client companies.

In a sustainable approach, this advisory role allows clients to see their contracts constantly reviewed so that they remain adapted to their requirements.

Thanks to a large network of partners, companies benefit from adapted, innovative solutions capable of converting regulatory changes into opportunities.

Participate in the active management of group insurance

The Group also acts as manager of group insurance.

This approach is materialized by a certified service center which works to the satisfaction of employees: COLONNA Facility.

Anticipating needs, renegotiating contracts in accordance with changes in companies, this entity manages all Health and Personal Protection coverage.

Thanks to its 300 experts, the structure drastically reduces the administrative burden on businesses.

Optimizing performance thanks to Data Science

Fueled by the desire to push back the frontiers of innovation, the Group imagined xCO Analytics as an augmented consulting offer based on Data Science.

Since 2018, this new entity aims to enable companies to activate new management and organizational levers.

More specifically, xCO Analytics seeks and collects data in order to analyze and understand the internal dysfunctions of the company.

The creation of this new division reflects the new strategic impetus of the Group initiated by Xavier Colonna: to rely on 50 years of know-how while opening up perspectives and reinventing itself.

xCO Analytics, led by the co-founders, Cyril and Nicolas Smet, reflects this perspective.

International development to maximize performance

With the acquisition of xCO Analytics, the COLONNA group has made a strategic shift towards digital which further anchors the Group in this desire to transform processes by relying on Data Science and technological tools. In addition to this strategy, there is the objective of international development, with the creation of a dedicated division.

The acceleration of this development responds to the Group's desire to meet the needs of client companies wishing to guarantee their workforce a social protection and provident plan throughout the world, while responding to new challenges in a world in perpetual transformation.

Attracting new talents, investing in existing employees, developing ever more efficient digital tools, the Group is evolving by maintaining a close link between technology and human capital.

Thanks to "daring, performance and a deep sense of humanity, we want to launch a new way of practicing the group insurance business", Xavier COLONNA aspires to the rebirth of the Group via a strategic impetus imbued with meaning .
