Malakoff Humanis

What Malakoff Humanis does

Malakoff Humanis is a French paritarian and mutual social protection group ("groupe de protection sociale paritaire et mutualiste"), formed in 2019 from the merger of Malakoff and Humanis, headquartered on Rue Laffitte in Paris's 9th arrondissement with 10,000+ employees. It provides complementary health insurance (mutuelle santé), provident insurance (death/disability/incapacity), savings and life insurance (assurance vie, PER), supplementary retirement, mortgage insurance, and international/expatriate coverage to approximately 9 million insured people across metropolitan France and overseas territories. It is described as France's second-largest social protection group and also operates as a manager of the Agirc-Arrco complementary retirement regime for private-sector employees.

The group serves four primary segments — individuals (particuliers), companies of all sizes (TPE to large enterprises), self-employed professionals (TNS), and professional branches — supported by a distinct moat in negotiated collective agreements, holding recommended status across 166+ professional branches (CCNs) including BET, HCR, Métallurgie, and Immobilier. Products span retail offerings (Pack Santé Particuliers, Entreprise Santé+), a fully digital micro-enterprise product (Poké), digital mortgage insurance (Zen'Up), and branch-specific mutuelles. The technology layer comprises a digital insurance platform (online subscription, claims, customer management), the AccessMH broker portal, Espace Client customer portals, iOS/Android apps, and the Kalixia care network of ~20,000 healthcare professionals (opticians, dentists, audiologists, osteopaths) offering negotiated rates and third-party payment.

Revenue is generated almost entirely through recurring premium contributions across health, provident, savings/retirement, mortgage, and branch agreements, with employer-employee cost-sharing on collective enterprise plans and management fees on accumulated savings. Go-to-market is hybrid and multi-channel: direct-to-consumer digital self-service for individuals and micro-enterprises, enterprise field sales for collective protection, and a large indirect network of 3,000+ accounting experts (experts-comptables), insurance brokers (courtiers), and general agents, augmented by automatic business flow from recommended professional-branch agreements. Enterprise pricing starts from €16/month per employee; individual plans use tiered formulas with promotional acquisition discounts.
