It is a member of Euresa, an international "business club" of mutual and cooperative insurance groups.[1]
History
[edit]Macif, the Mutual Insurance Company for Traders and Industrialists of France, as well as Executives and Employees in Industry and Commerce, was founded on April 30, 1960, as a mutual insurance company.[2]
In 1968, Socram Banque was founded by several property and casualty insurance mutuals to distribute auto loans.[3]
In the 1970s, MACIF was among the first insurers to offer policies for pleasure boats.[4]
In 1979, MACIF partnered with several mutual insurance companies to create Mutavie, a service offering savings and retirement products.[5]
When its founder Jacques Vandier (1927–2020) retired in 1997 he asserted that it was the largest mutual motor insurance company in France: "Je suis parti de zéro. Avec quelques autres, j'ai fait de la Macif la première mutuelle d'assurances automobile en France." ("I started from zero. With a few others, I made Macif the first mutual car insurance company in France").[6]
