Groupe Prévoir

Groupe Prévoir

Groupe Prévoir was established in 1910 by the Boutot family, which retains a 70 percent controlling interest. Patricia Lacoste, a descendant of the founding families, has led the group as Chairwoman and CEO. The firm focuses on personal lines of life insurance, pensions, and mortgage insurance sold primarily to non-salaried workers in France. Investment activity spans listed equities and private operating businesses. Confirmed public positions include NVIDIA, LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton, ASML Holding, Schneider Electric, and Air Liquide. Private holdings comprise 100 percent ownership of AssurOne, UTWIN, Prévoir Asset Management, Réassurez-moi, and Stello, all held through Société Centrale Prévoir. The firm also maintains a joint venture, Mirae Asset Prévoir, in Vietnam. Geographic reach centers on France with additional exposure in Vietnam and selected European and Asian markets. Capital is deployed across early-stage seed and start-up rounds as well as expansion and late-stage venture opportunities, with an investment horizon of five to fifteen years. The group employs an undisclosed number of professionals and maintains its headquarters at 19 rue d'Aumale in Paris. A second Paris site houses Société Centrale Prévoir. Adjacent vehicles include the Fondation Groupe Prévoir, established in 2013 to support health prevention and medical research in France. In October 2024 the firm attended the Reavie conference in Cannes to discuss life and health insurance trends. Ownership structure features a 70 percent family stake alongside a 30 percent minority interest, creating a hybrid governance model that blends family control with external audit and rating oversight from Mazars, Deloitte, and S&P Global Ratings. The firm belongs to the Fédération Française de l'Assurance and participates in IFACI professional networks.
