Søe-Assurance Compagniet

Det Kongelige octroierede Søe-Assurance Compagni, often referred to as Søe-Assurance Compagniet, was founded in 1728 as the first marine insurance company in Denmark.

It held a monopoly on marine insurance in Denmark until 1786.

Det Kongelige octroierede Søe-Assurance Compagni was founded in the Børsen building in Copenhagen in 1728.

The company's monopoly on marine insurance was challenged by Niels Ryberg [da] and other major merchants and ship-owners towards the middle of the century.

Its monopoly was finally lifted in 1783, leading to the formal establishment of De private Assurandeurer in 1786.
