CASE

Insurer De Onderlinge has been selling life insurances for centuries. However, the company has been featured in the news quite frequently in 2018. According to the media the company is in bad financial shape. Furthermore, some of the board members have resigned and De Nederlandsche Bank is actively interfering with day-to-day business. The current management and shareholders of the insurance company would like to try to sell the company. Insurer MM has growth ambitions and is considering a possible take-over. The advisers of Student Consulting are asked to determine the economic value of De Onderlinge. In addition to a thorough valuation of the De Onderlinge portfolio, they are also requested to assist in the negotiations about the final price. The case will be given in Dutch.
