Croatia osiguranje

Croatia osiguranje was founded in 1884 in Zagreb as the "Croatia" Insurance Cooperative. The company’s establishment was supported by prominent figures of the Croatian National Revival, including August Šenoa and Gjuro Deželić. Throughout the 20th century, the company’s legal structure changed to reflect shifting political systems, including periods as a state-owned enterprise in the Kingdom of Yugoslavia and later the SFR Yugoslavia.

In 2014, the Croatian government privatized the company. A majority stake was acquired by Adris grupa, which remains the controlling shareholder.

LAQO

In 2020, Croatia osiguranje launched LAQO, a digital insurance brand. It operates as a mobile and web-based platform, allowing users to purchase and manage policies without physical documentation. The service focuses primarily on non-life insurance, such as motor vehicle insurance and travel insurance.

Cryptocurrency Integration

In 2022, the company began accepting cryptocurrency as a form of payment for its insurance premiums. This was implemented through a partnership with the payment processor Electrocoin via the PayCek platform. This made Croatia osiguranje the first major insurer in the Adriatic region to accept digital assets for payment.
