Extracover Insurance Company has legally changed its name to its parent company name Zego Insurance.

The change seeks to bring the MGA and insurer together under one name and culture – removing confusion and reinforcing commitment to operating as a single, market-facing organisation.

Extracover was created by Zego in 2019 as a disruptor in commercial motor insurance. 

It was also the first insurtech in the UK to be granted its own insurance licence.

Sten Saar, chief executive at Zego, said: “Zego stands for innovation, simplicity and transparency in insurance.

”This update reflects our continued drive to offer a seamless experience for our partners, customers and colleagues.”
