Funk is Germany’s largest owner-managed insurance broker and risk consultant and ranks among Europe's leading brokerage firms. Founded in Berlin in 1879, the family-owned company is renowned for its in-depth expertise. Funk manages complex insurance programmes and, where an international solution is required, draws on its own global network, the Funk Alliance.

With Vantel in place, Funk compares quotes, policies and wordings consistently and traceably inside their existing placement work. Funk's clients benefit directly from faster processing times, while their experts gain more time to provide personal recommendations and bring their extensive expertise to each individual client situation.

As Lukas Ganzel, Head of Digital Business at Funk Gruppe, puts it:

AI is already part of how we work at Funk, and we are deliberate about what we build ourselves and what we bring in from outside. The requirements in this area are highly complex, and Vantel's solution matches our needs and expectations very precisely – without us having to develop a specialised system of our own.

On a personal note, thank you to Lukas Ganzel, Frederik Grünewald and Sarah Schlüter, and everybody else involved; the Vantel team is excited about the partnership.
