HBC Holding GmbH, based in Vienna, strengthens its position in the Austrian insurance market through a strategic partnership with SCHINNER Versicherungsmaklerkanzlei GmbH.
“The partnership with the traditional company SCHINNER represents a significant step for us in further expanding our range of customized insurance solutions. SCHINNER's expertise, particularly in supporting property developers and real estate managers, ideally complements our strengths in the brokerage and underwriting sector,” says Gert Schlossmacher, Managing Director of HBC Holding GmbH. “By joining forces with SCHINNER, we are not only expanding our service portfolio, but also creating the basis for long-term, sustainable growth in Austria,” adds Dr. Sebastian Friese, CFO of the HBC Group.

SCHINNER Versicherungsmaklerkanzlei GmbH is one of the leading insurance brokers with a focus on property developers and property managers in Austria. In 2024, SCHINNER emerged as the direct legal successor to SCHINNER Vermögenstreuhand und Versicherungsberatungs GmbH, which was founded in 1985, as part of a spin-off. The traditional company enjoys the highest respect in the industry, which was further honored in 2002 with the award of the Austrian national coat of arms. Dr. Constanze Schinner, Managing Director of SCHINNER Versicherungsmaklerkanzlei GmbH, explains: “The partnership with HBC opens up new perspectives for us to make our insurance brokerage even more efficient, innovative and future-proof for our customers and employees. Founded by my father Prof. Heinz Schinner as a pure transport insurer, we developed into an insurance broker for industry and property managers. With the partnership with HBC and the Group's expertise, we will once again serve the transport insurance segment more effectively. Following the merger, our insurance brokerage firm will continue to work with our customers in a trusting and personal manner. We are convinced that we have found the ideal partner in HBC to continue to meet the high demands of our customers in the future.” The HBC Group is looking forward to a successful future together and to further developing the existing strengths and high level of expertise of both companies for the benefit of our clients and employees.
