On 7 April 2011 the Unipol Group defined the terms of the sale of 51% of the company BNL Vita to BNP-Paribas: operation concluded on 29 september 2011.
On 1 July 2011, at the end of a major rebranding project affecting the whole organisation, the Unipol Group is officially launching its new image and that of the subsidiaries: the change highlights the 'Unipol' brand as a deliberate strategic and business choice.
2012 On 29 January 2012 the Unipol Group began the process of merger by incorporation of Unipol Assicurazioni, Fondiaria-Sai, Milano Assicurazioni and Premafin. For the Unipol Group the acquisition, which is of strategic importance to business, is an important opportunity to grow in size, particularly in the area of Non-Life business.
On 19 July 2012 Unipol subscribed Premafin’s capital increase reserved for Unipol. As a result of these transactions Unipol is now the majority shareholder of Premafin with a stake in its share capital of roughly 81% and has therefore acquired control of the Fondiaria-Sai Group.
