Achmea Investment Management has announced the launch of a new private equity fund that will invest in companies delivering both financial returns and measurable positive impact in areas such as climate, biodiversity, nutrition and health. The fund has a target size of EUR 250 million, with EUR 225 million already committed from investors.

The launch reflects ICMIF member Achmea’s commitment as a cooperative organisation to invest in the world of tomorrow, aligning strong financial performance with societal benefit. The new fund will be available to institutional clients from the fourth quarter of 2025 and builds on Achmea’s broader ambition to allocate at least 10% of its invested equity capital—around EUR 4 billion—to impact investments by the end of 2025. At mid-year 2025, Achmea says it has already reached 9.1%.

The announcement came alongside Achmea’s half-year results, which showed an operating result of EUR 567 million, up 31% compared to the same period last year. The net result came in at EUR 383 million, while premium volume rose by 12% to EUR 24.6 billion. Assets under management remained stable at over EUR 260 billion and solvency strengthened to 184%.

Bianca Tetteroo (pictured), Chair of the Executive Board, said: “We have started 2025 well. Customer satisfaction with our products and customer service remains high, we continue to grow and achieve good financial results. The operating result amounted to EUR 567 million, up by 31% compared to the same period last year. We are on track to achieve our strategic and financial objectives for 2025. In the fourth quarter, we will present our new targets for 2030.”

Achmea says its strong performance was driven by growth and higher margins in non-life, healthcare in the Netherlands and international operations, with particular strength in the absence of major weather-related claims and lower-than-expected healthcare costs.

Achmea’s cooperative identity continues to underpin its strategy—investing not only in financial strength, but also in long-term value for society.
