Coface, the credit management and insurance group, has bought the credit insurance business of Australian underwriting agency, Dexta.
Dexta Corporation Ltd provides insurance and risk services and underwrote a total premium of A$12.3m in 2003.
The company has underwritten and managed credit insurance on behalf of Coface in Australia since May 2000. During this time, Dexta and Coface has developed a mutual strategy to strengthen their relationship, positioning both parties to benefit from new market opportunities in Australian credit insurance.
Coface Services Australia Ltd will now operate the credit insurance business.
