The Ensur Company boosts Dutch presence with acquisition of flexIQ
The Ensur Company, a consulting group focused on pensions and insurance, has taken a major step in its Dutch expansion ambitions with the acquisition of flexIQ.
Utrecht-based flexIQ is a professional services provider to the pensions sector. The consulting firm supports pension administrators, insurers, pension funds and software providers at the intersection of IT and business. flexIQ is active in areas including consultancy, IT implementations, business process solutions, data migrations, AI services and organisational transformations.
The addition of flexIQ’s 90-strong team gives The Ensur Company a significant boost to its Dutch team and its capabilities in the pensions sector. The deal grows its headcount to 240 consultants across Belgium and the Netherlands, with combined annual revenues of approximately €46 million.
“By adding flexIQ, we are significantly expanding our capacity to support insurers, pension administrators and pension software providers in complex transformation, digitalisation and change programmes,” said Rick Goossens, Country Lead for the Netherlands.
“With flexIQ’s deep expertise at the intersection of IT and pension processes, combined with our own service offering, we are creating a powerful end-to-end partner with 140 experienced professionals in the Netherlands working across transformations spanning the full pensions value chain. This gives us the scale and capability to deliver large projects and assignments for our clients.”
Moustapha Kharbouch, Co-Founder and M&A Lead at The Ensur Company, added: “We are delighted to welcome flexIQ to our group. flexIQ has built a very strong reputation in the Dutch pensions market, which it demonstrates every day through its experienced and knowledgeable professionals and its broad client base.”
Growth ambition
The Ensur Company is a Belgian-origin group with the ambition to grow into one of the leading consulting firms in the pensions and insurance sectors. The company is backed by Down2Earth Capital, which came on board in early 2025.
“The acquisition of flexIQ fits perfectly with our strategic ambition to become a leading total-solution partner for end-to-end transformations in the insurance and pensions sectors, and confirms our strong belief in the Netherlands as a structural growth market,” said Kharbouch.
“Thanks to our close partnership with Down2Earth Capital, we are well positioned to further accelerate our growth ambitions, expand our portfolio of specialised brands and continue investing in our capabilities.”
