SRI Group Global, an international firm specialising in Financial Advisory and Corporate Investment Banking, with a team led by Managing DirectorMassimo Domini and SeniorAdvisorLudovico Corbetta, acted as financial advisor to Edge, an Italian insurtech group, in the sale of a majority stake to AnaCap Financial Partners, a London-based private equity investor.
Founded in 2014 by Manfredo Sciarretta and Alessandra Moretti and headquartered in Milan, Edge serves a large and diversified customer base of policyholders, distributing commercial insurance lines such as liability, multi-risk policies, accidents, and health. The breadth of its offering, its ability to deliver tailored insurance solutions, and the quality of its services position Edge as a recognised name within the Italian insurance brokerage industry with a fully integrated approach. The company provides broker, risk management, Managing General Agency (MGA), and welfare solutions to a broad corporate client base in Italy, including both SMEs and large corporations.
Edge’s mission statement is to deliver the best products and services possible at every stage of the client growth journey for commercial insurance activity. Edge offers tailored solutions that meet the continually evolving needs of its client base and seeks to deliver thoughtful and balanced outcomes.
AnaCap will partner with Edge’s CEO, Manfredo Sciarretta, to execute his vision of building the leading broking consolidation platform in Italy. The existing management team will continue to lead the platform’s operations and growth under AnaCap’s ownership, driven by its capital investment, sector expertise, and operational support to further accelerate both organic and inorganic growth strategies.
The partnership will also strengthen Edge’s ability to accelerate its inorganic growth strategy across the Italian fragmented insurance brokerage market.
In addition to SRI Group, Edge was advised by Pedersoli Gattai as legal and tax advisor, and by EpyonVivida, which managed the financial vendor due diligence. AnaCap was advised by Orrick as legal counsel for the transaction.
