AXA has agreed to buy Laya Healthcare from AIG subsidiary
Corebridge Financial for 650 million euros ($711 million), in a
deal that seeks to strengthen its European health-insurance
operations.
The French insurer said Thursday that Laya generates EUR800
million in premiums a year and serves around 700,000 policyholders.
Laya focuses on the Irish health market and will complement AXA's
presence there in the property-and-casualty market, it said.
AXA said the acquisition further diversifies the company and
will contribute to digitization. The deal will result in a
reduction of the group's solvency II ratio--a measure of financial
strength--of three percentage points, it said.
The acquisition is expected to be completed by the end of the
year, subject to customary closing conditions, AXA said.
