“The acquisition is a natural next step in our evolution and will allow us to better serve our broker partners and customers while continuing to push the boundaries of innovation in cyber insurance, executive risks insurance, and beyond.” 

Last month, the cyber insurtech raised $250m in a Series F funding round at a $5bn valuation. 

The round was joined by Allianz Group’s digital investments arm Allianz X, Valor Equity Partners, Kinetic Partners and other existing investors.

Before that, Allianz and Coalition formed a multi-year alliance on cyber insurance programmes in the US and the UK.
