Coalition, the world’s first Active Insurance provider focused on preventing digital risk before it occurs, announced today that it has received regulatory approval and completed the acquisition of Digital Affect Insurance Company from Munich Re Digital Partners US Holding Corporation. Digital Affect Insurance Company is an all-state property and casualty insurer.

Coalition will be able to offer insurance policies through its own admitted insurance carrier as a result of the acquisition. Coalition currently offers cyber, technology errors and omissions, directors and officers, and other executive risks policies in collaboration with Allianz, Arch Insurance North America, Ascot Group, Lloyd’s of London, Swiss Re Corporate Solutions, Vantage, and Zurich, among others.

“This strategic move enables Coalition to broaden the reach of our market-leading active cyber insurance offering, as well as other admitted insurance products,” said Shawn Ram, Coalition’s Head of Insurance. “The acquisition is a natural next step in our evolution, allowing us to better serve our broker partners and customers while pushing the boundaries of innovation in cyber insurance, executive risks insurance, and beyond.”

This acquisition follows a series of significant company milestones in 2022. Coalition recently announced a $250 million investment in July 2022, raising the company’s valuation to $5 billion, and appointed its first ever chief financial officer and general counsel earlier this month, ahead of a planned expansion into the United Kingdom.

Active Insurance from Coalition combines industry-leading cybersecurity tools, 24/7 access to digital forensics and incident response, and comprehensive insurance coverage to assist organizations in identifying, mitigating, and insuring digital risk. Coalition’s technological advantage has enabled the company to build a sustainable, high-performing book of business in a highly volatile cyber market, while also assisting Coalition customers in identifying and managing digital risk before it occurs. Coalition now provides Active Cyber Insurance, Active Executive Risks Insurance, P&C insurance, and cybersecurity capabilities to over 160,000 customers.
