The history of the DEFEND brand dates back to 1994. Since 2012, the DEFEND INSURANCE GROUP from the Czech Republic has gradually expanded to Slovakia, Poland, Hungary and Great Britain. Since 2019, we have been part of the American insurance company Fortegra, rated A- (Excellent), and its European subsidiary Fortegra Europe Insurance Company is our main insurer. This partnership has mutually strengthened our position in the European markets and enabled our further expansion. From 2022, you will also find us in the Baltics and now also in Romania.
Our goal is to help clients reduce risk and increase their sense of security and financial stability by providing tailored insurance products, fast claims handling and superior customer service.
Buying and operating a vehicle is one of the biggest expenses for every household. In addition, it is necessary to consider the risks of possible additional expenses for repairs or loss of the vehicle as a result of total damage or theft. Thanks to our products, clients can enjoy their vehicle worry-free, and in the event of damage, we ensure they can get back on the road quickly and without unnecessary expense and use the vehicle again for the activities they need, whether it's commuting to work , shopping, trips or anything else.
Clients always come first for us and we value the trust they place in us. Thanks to this, we provide partners who offer our products not only an opportunity for business growth, but also significantly contribute to building customer loyalty towards their companies.
In short, whether you are our client or partner, you can rely on us. We look forward to helping you worry less and "Experience More".
