About Mannheimer
Die Mannheimer Versicherung AG is a damage and casualty insurance company based in Mannheim specialising in specialty insurance. The company was founded in 1879 as a pure transport insurer covering goods in international transit. The origins remain, and much has been added: today, alongside its broad business, Mannheimer offers more than twenty special concepts for defined target groups from the private and commercial sectors, for example for classic cars (BELMOT), classical music (SINFONIMA), art and valuables (ARTIMA), jewellers and goldsmiths (VALORIMA), music on the power circuit (I'M SOUND), hotels (HOSTIMA), golf courses (PRIGOM) and specialist companies in energy technology (LUMIT). The portfolio includes transport, construction, machinery and equipment insurance as well as claims advice and prevention guides. With around EUR 470.3 million in premium income and an average of 605 employees, the company ranks among the mid-sized insurers in Germany and has been part of the Continentale Versicherungsverbund auf Gegenseitigkeit since 2012. Mannheimer is active in Germany, other EU countries and Switzerland.
