Claims rarely fit neatly within national lines. From its earliest days, Van Ameyde has operated in that reality. Founder Henri Van Ameyde recognized early on that mobility creates complexity, and that handling claims across borders requires coordination, trust and professional judgement. His pioneering role in the Green Card system laid the foundation for the expertise of Van Ameyde in cross-border motor claims. That foundation shaped how the organization developed.
Growing with complexity
As insurance markets evolved, so did Van Ameyde. What began with motor claims expanded into broader claims expertise, supporting insurers, corporates and intermediaries across the full claims process. Growth followed experience in practice: understanding local regulations, managing international coordination, and delivering consistent outcomes in complex situations. This evolution was not about scale alone, but about staying close to the reality of claims.
Expertise shaped by people
At Van Ameyde, claims are handled by people who understand what is at stake. Expertise is built in practice, through complex cases, cross-border collaboration, and decisions that require accountability and professional judgement.
Specialists work close to the claim itself, combining local insight with an international perspective. Their role goes beyond processing or speed. It is about applying experience, exercising judgement and ensuring decisions stand up — for clients, partners and end customers alike.
Technology that supports judgement
Today, human expertise is supported by technology built around it. Through its ECHO claims handling platform, Van Ameyde combines decades of claims knowledge with AI-powered software, automation and digital workflows. This enables processes to move faster, insights to surface earlier, and decisions to be applied more consistently — without losing the nuance that complex claims require.
Technology does not replace expertise; it amplifies it. By embedding human judgement into the design of ECHO, specialists are freed from routine tasks and can focus on decision-making where experience, context and responsibility matter most.
Built to keep moving forward
In 2026, Van Ameyde marks 80 years of expertise. From pioneering cross-border motor claims to operating as a global network of specialist teams, the organization continues to evolve with the claims landscape.
Rooted in experience and focused on progress, Van Ameyde remains committed to navigating complexity with confidence — today and tomorrow.
