Corporate Profile

Founded a quarter of a century ago by former executives of Banco Security Pacific, Grupo Security is a leading niche Chilean-based diversified financial group, offering banking, insurance, asset management and other services to large and medium-sized companies, and individuals. We service nearly 300,000 customers across five integrated business areas. From inception, we have striven to position our group of companies with the same objective, and that is to value our customers. Recognized for the commitment to our customers, Banco Security ranks among the top companies in Customer Experience in Chile by Praxis and among the best mid-sized banks in terms of Customer Satisfaction by Procalidad, a collaboration between Universidad Adolfo Ibañez and Praxis.

Through a combination of organic growth and acquisitions, twelve in twenty-five years, and a strategy based on segmentation and innovation, we have expanded the group’s revenue sources and have reported consistent profitability. We also have a successful track record of integrating acquisitions and generating synergies. In Chile, we participate in regulated industries with significant growth potential. Our priority is to deliver ongoing profitable growth to our shareholders.

After 20 years of successful operations in Chile, we began expanding in the Andean region. Our first acquisition outside of Chile occurred in 2012 with the purchase of a leading travel agency in Peru. With this acquisition, we gained experience in the Peruvian market paving the way for future acquisitions in our niche segments. And more recently, we agreed to acquire a majority stake in Protecta, Peru’s 5th largest life insurance company in terms of investments portfolio.

Since its founding, Grupo Security has fostered a strong sense of corporate social responsibility and first and foremost we are committed to all of our employees. We are concerned with each employee's growth and development and, as a result, we contribute to the enrichment and well-being of their families. Grupo Security has built a corporate culture that balances both work and family life for its associates. We are a trailblazer in Chile, which is reflected in the accolades we have received. We are most proud that for 20 consecutive years Grupo Security has been recognized by the Great Place to Work Institute as one of the best companies to work for in Chile.
