Leading provider of specialised outsourced services and insurance products

Acture Group (“Acture” or “the Group”) is a business providing specialised outsourced services and insurance products to Dutch corporates and temporary staffing agencies to manage cases of illness or disability in their workforces. The Group recently entered the German market, building out an employee welfare proposition based on prevention, activation and financial security for blue chip employers.

Acture was founded by CEO Maudie Derks and two other co-founders in 2008, with the objective of reducing absenteeism and employer costs amidst the complex and evolving Dutch social security system.

The investment was acquired from the founders in March 2020 and the CEO reinvested alongside IK Partners to support further growth of the business.
