POELLATH advises the founders of MAP on investment by Inflexion

European private equity firm Inflexion has invested in the establishment of Mittelstands-Assekuranz-Partner (“MAP”), a new German multi-specialist insurance broker. The investment is made from Inflexion’s Buyout Fund VI. Düsseldorf-based Cremer Assekuranz is joining as the first strategic partner; its Managing Director, Kolja Zweering, will become a shareholder and join the MAP management team alongside the founders Mathias Pahl (CEO) and Markus Hausberger (CFO). POELLATH provided legal advice to the founders of MAP on the structuring of their management participation in connection with the transaction.

Based in Munich, MAP positions itself as a technology-driven insurance broker for mid-sized companies, commercial clients and high-net-worth individuals, combining strong regional client proximity with specialised risk and insurance advisory services. With the support of In-flexion, MAP is to be developed into a leading platform in the German insurance market, with partners retaining their entrepreneurial identity while gaining access to central infrastructure, technology and growth resources.

Inflexion is a leading European mid-market private equity firm that invests in high-growth companies and supports them in their further development together with their management teams.
