## Overview

MOVA Seguros is a digital insurance brokerage serving individual and small
business clients in Portugal. The company operates as an ASF-registered
insurance mediator/agent out of Lisbon, combining a guided online
subscription flow with a physical office for clients who prefer in-person
service.

The business began with market planning in 2020, received authorization
from the Autoridade de Supervisao de Seguros e Fundos de Pensoes (ASF) to
operate as an individual mediator in May 2021, and was incorporated as a
company under the MOVA Seguros brand in September 2022, operating as an
insurance agent. It is wholly funded by Portuguese capital, with no
external investment rounds identified. Co-founders Joao Valente and Paulo
Montez lead the company; Montez also writes on insurance and pensions
topics for Jornal Economico and the company's own blog.

The brokerage sells personal lines (auto, home, health, life, pet,
travel, personal accident, and domestic-employee insurance), savings and
investment products (a retirement savings plan, unit-linked policies),
and business coverage (cyber risk, work accident) through a Q&A-style
online flow, and issues policies through a panel of Portuguese and
international insurers. By year-end 2025 the company reported a combined
Life and Non-Life portfolio exceeding EUR 15 million and around 1,000
customers subscribing to non-mandatory insurance products, up from a
reported EUR 12 million milestone around its one-year anniversary in
mid-2023 (coverage in ECO, Forbes Portugal, and VidaEconomica). Its 2026
priorities are consolidating the existing portfolio, adding solutions
for current clients, and growing the client base through active
prospecting. The company describes its operations as carbon neutral
since founding and says it weighs social and environmental factors
when selecting insurer and business partners.
