The benefits of group insurance: why employers and their staff members are such fans

In 2019, group insurance in Belgium celebrated its 100th anniversary. Right from the beginning, AG has always positioned itself as a pioneer in this sector, as you may recall from this article. But what makes employers still want to provide their staff members with a group insurance plan 100 years later? Why is group insurance such a no-brainer these days when it comes to putting together a balanced fringe benefits package? ​​

​What are the benefits for employers?​

“I think it’s inconceivable these days to hire someone without including a group insurance plan in their salary package”​


This quote from Henk Debrock (Bekaert) already speaks volumes. And there are so many other benefits. Together with Stefaan Boom (BNP Paribas Fortis), he explains why it’s a wise move for you, as an employer, to offer a group insurance plan even in 2020.​​

​Group insurance comes in a variety of shapes and sizes

With group insurance, one size definitely doesn’t fit all. Interested in a Branch 21 solution with a guaranteed return? Or are you prepared to take on more risk with a Branch 23 solution in exchange for the prospect of earning a higher return? No matter what your employer profile and risk appetite, there is the right group insurance plan to meet your specific needs.
