France Assureurs

What France Assureurs does

France Assureurs is the professional federation representing 254 insurance and reinsurance companies operating in France, covering more than 99% of the French insurance market. Created in July 2016 from the merger of the Fédération française des sociétés d'assurances (FFSA) and the Groupement des entreprises mutuelles d'assurance (GEMA), it is headquartered in Paris and operates as a private nonprofit association led by a President elected by the General Assembly for a three-year term.

Rather than selling insurance products directly, France Assureurs serves as the unified industry voice in policy advocacy, regulatory engagement, and public representation. Its functional activities span four pillars: collecting and publishing comprehensive market statistics (life insurance, health/provident, property/liability, economic financing, employment); coordinating professional training and certification programs including the CQP CRCA qualification through partnerships with more than 100 educational institutions; operating consumer-facing prevention platforms such as Assurance Prévention, CyberPrev, Batterie Attitude, Dérap'Pas, and the Assurément Margaux podcast; and facilitating large-scale investment programs including the €5.3 billion Tibi III commitment and the €2.5 billion Relance Durable France program with Caisse des Dépôts.

Its revenue is funded by membership dues from the 254 member companies (including AXA, Allianz, CNP Assurances, Covea, Groupama, and Generali) on a subscription model. Member companies distribute insurance directly to individuals, professionals, and local authorities through agents, brokers, and direct channels, while France Assureurs supports those members through industry data, training, prevention campaigns, white papers, and representation before national and European authorities. The federation's broader economic footprint is significant: member insurers manage €2,774 billion in investments (93% of French GDP) at end-2025, employ 161,300 people across France, and account for €20,100 hires in 2024.

Broad incumbents

• Insurance Europe: The European insurance and reinsurance federation, of which France Assureurs is a member.

• UNESPA (Unión Española de Entidades Aseguradoras y Reaseguradoras): The Spanish insurance and reinsurance employers' association. UNESPA consolidates the Spanish industry's voice, publishes market statistics, and coordinates training — a direct functional analogue to France Assureurs.

ANIA provides industry data, policy advocacy, and prevention initiatives, closely paralleling France Assureurs' role in a comparable Southern European insurance market.
