Solid results and sustainable growth momentum
When presenting the annual results, Benjamin Verlingue, Chairman and CEO of the Adelaïde Group, along with Audrey Verlingue and Gilles Bénéplanc, Deputy CEO's of the Adelaïde Group, highlighted the solidity of the Group's model, based on robust organic growth (+10%) and a strategy of targeted acquisitions.

2024: A year marked by strategic acquisitions
The Adelaïde Group strengthened its strategic positions in the European brokerage market by making four acquisitions, illustrating its desire to diversify its expertise and expand its geographical presence:
