ASR is a leading listed insurance company. The partnership not only allows OO&R to work with ASR to conduct research on legal developments in insurance and insurance supervision, but also on other topics of interest to OO&R and ASR, such as asset management, mortgages, pensions and corporate sustainability.
OO&R is delighted with ASR as its new partner and looks forward to a successful and long-term cooperation. It is partly because of its partners that the institute is able to recognise new important developments in a timely manner and adapt its research programmes accordingly. ASR's entry simultaneously marks the departure of Aegon as a partner of OO&R. Aegon was a partner from the very beginning, but as a result of the merger with ASR it has largely lost its connection with the Dutch legal sphere. However, with regard to the Dutch operations, ASR's accession preserves the substantive cooperation.
