The ARAG Group is to launch operations in the Republic of Ireland through the acquisition of DAS Legal Expenses, part of the ERGO Group. ARAG and DAS reached agreement earlier this month on the business transfer and retention of the present staff.

DAS UK Group CEO, Andrew Burke commented “This transaction will allow us to concentrate our focus on continuing to improve the outcomes we achieve for our customers and business partners in the UK market including Northern Ireland. I am delighted our colleagues in Dublin have a positive future under the ownership of ARAG and am confident they will continue to deliver a leading service to their customers.”

With a market share of roughly 60% and gross premium income of approximately E6m in 2018, DAS has been offering legal insurance products for private individuals and commercial enterprises in the Republic of Ireland for over 20 years.
