Andreas Treichl (General Manager of the Erste Group) and Günter Geyer (former CEO and current Chairman of the VIG Supervisory Board) sign a cooperation agreement in 2008.

Vienna Insurance Group acquired the entire insurance operations of the Erste Group in 2008. An agreement was concluded at the same time for a strategic partnership that benefited both corporate groups equally: Erste Group branches distribute VIG insurance products and VIG Group companies offer Erste Group bank products in return.
