In 1934 Lloyd Italico acquired other Genoese insurance companies such as L'Ancora, Oceanus and Ermes. In the same year, the Genoese insurance broker Emilio Borzino became president of the company. In 1946 the presidency passed to Andrea Giuseppe Croce, who later became the president of the Yacht Club Italiano[3] and of the International Sailing Federation. The company further strengthened its presence within the Italian territory and extended its network of agents.
