Revenue model

1. Insurance Brokerage Commissions: CIBA earns revenue by acting as an intermediary between clients (businesses) and insurance providers. They identify and analyze client risk and insurance needs, construct optimal insurance packages, negotiate with insurers on the client's behalf, and earn commissions from the placed insurance policies. Their model is not fee-based advisory but commission-based placement.

Partnerships

One partnership is on record.

• Lloyd's of LondoncoreStrategic or Co-development PartnerCIBA has direct access to Lloyd's of London through their own specialists in Lloyd's London (Andrew Forester and Eddy Dawson). This partnership provides CIBA with international underwriting capacity for aviation, liability, and complex risks. Lloyd's is a cornerstone of CIBA's ability to place specialty and reinsurance-level risks that cannot be covered by standard Danish or European insurers.

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• Aon: Global insurance and reinsurance broker with deep specialty practices (aviation, construction, energy). Competes with CIBA on complex commercial placements across Denmark and Europe, including via its own Lloyd's connectivity.
• Willis Towers Watson (WTW): Global advisory, broking, and solutions firm with significant aviation and natural resources practices. Competes with CIBA for specialty commercial accounts and has a substantial Nordic presence.
• Marsh: Global commercial insurance and risk advisory broker with extensive specialty practices including aviation. Competes with CIBA for Danish mid-market and specialty commercial placements but operates at vastly greater scale and across all lines of business.

Regional players

• PenSam: Danish insurance and pension provider with a corporate insurance arm. Overlaps with CIBA in the Danish commercial market and represents a regional competitor with deeper local capital but less specialty Lloyd's depth.
• Söderberg & Partners: Leading Nordic insurance and financial advisory broker with multi-vertical specialization across Sweden, Norway, Denmark, and Finland. Direct competitor for Nordic specialty commercial clients with comparable mid-market positioning to CIBA.
• Nordania Insurance / Gjensidige: Nordic insurance carrier and broker group with significant Danish commercial lines presence. Competes with CIBA for Danish SME and mid-market commercial accounts across several of CIBA's verticals (transport, construction, manufacturing).

Direct peers

• Lockton: World's largest independent insurance brokerage, heavily focused on specialty commercial lines including aviation, construction, and energy. Competes with CIBA for specialty commercial accounts and shares a relationship-led, non-volume-driven approach.
• Arthur J. Gallagher & Co. US-headquartered specialty insurance broker with strong aviation, energy, and construction practices. Competes with CIBA on specialty commercial placement globally, including in Europe, and shares a consultative, relationship-led go-to-market.
• Howden Group: Employee-owned specialty insurance broker with significant aviation, marine, and energy practices and deep Lloyd's of London presence. The most direct structural comparator to CIBA — same specialty DNA, same Lloyd's anchor, multi-vertical European footprint.

Emerging players

• Acrisure: Fast-growing, tech-enabled global insurance brokerage that has acquired specialty firms across aviation and commercial lines. Represents a disruptive threat to traditional specialty brokers like CIBA through digital distribution and aggregator scale.
